Through her Board of Directors position for the Tahoe Fund, she has been an active member in bringing many public recreation and conservation projects to the Lake Tahoe basin. As an active member of Soroptimists International SLT, she has worked with other local female professionals and business owners that fundraise for women and children in need on the South Shore. Additionally, she also contributes time and treasure to Tahoe Women’s Community Fund which is an organization that provides financial support to local nonprofits through grants.

Her involvement continues on various committees from local chambers, STAR Realtors, City of South Lake Tahoe, NAR, CAR and through volunteer work, time and treasure for Boys and Girls Club, Christmas Cheer, Lake Tahoe Marathon, Keep Tahoe Blue, Beach cleanups, Ski Run Community Park and more.

“Joining Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Drysdale Properties is a natural fit. I have been watching them for a while so when the opportunity to join forces presented itself, it was a no brainer. After years of building connectivity and top notch services for our clients, we are taking
these two pillars, the very foundation of our history here in Lake Tahoe, and merging them with one of the most established brands in the real estate industry. Together we will continue with their exciting and transformative vision, high level of services, cutting edge technology and
tools, giving our clients the same local expertise with the best the industry has to offer.”
