In the late 80’s I started visiting the Gorge...
with my family. Avid windsurfers, they encouraged me to take up the sport, but it wasn’t until after college that I caught the addictive windsurfing "bug". In 1993, I made the trek from Seattle to the Gorge every possible weekend, and in ’94, I moved to the Gorge. I have never looked back and have called Hood River home ever since, buying my current home in 1995 through Don Nunamaker, Realtors.

Hood River had become my home...
but the traveling "bug" took over as I started competing in windsurfing all around the globe. My travels took me to Mexico, Europe, Australia, and eventually to Maui, Hawaii, where I met my husband, Chris Gilbert, and became involved in the exploding sport of kiteboarding. For the next 5 years we spent winters in Maui and summers in Hood River.

As professional kiteboarders...
we traveled to some of the most amazing places on earth, but there was only one place we called home-the Gorge. Each time we returned here, I marveled at how the beauty of the Columbia Gorge rivaled that of all exotic places we visited. The diversity of the Gorge is unique-the river, the numerous snow-capped mountains, the orhcards, the forests, the lakes-you name it!

In 2004, my husband and I chose to make Hood River our permanent home...
and we couldn’t be happier. Chris works for Da Kine and I have joined the Don Nunamaker team. As we start our family, I couldn’t think of a better community to be in, or a better career to have. We have loved owning a classic home, doing the rewarding hard work of remodeling it, and look forward to the day we build our dream home here in the Gorge.

Owning a home here in Hood River...
I have become fascinated with the real estate market, and I am eager to help others enjoy the benefits of property ownership. The Columbia Gorge is a wonderful place to live and a great place to vacation. Whether you enjoy it full time or part time, the rewards are plentiful.

WORK EXPERIENCE:
As a professional athlete for the past 6 years, my income has been dependent on my skill, my dedication and my marketing. Prior to kiteboarding and windsurfing, I was involved in the business of advertising, radio ad sales, television commentating, freelance writing, business management, marketing, and sales.

HOBBIES:
Kiteboarding, windsurfing, mountain biking, snowboarding, skiing, hiking, photography and writing.
