As a Realtor® or as a friend, Joan is your ultimate advocate. As for experience, she has plenty: more than 35 years. In fact, she regularly ranks among The Hasson Company's top agents and has enjoyed Diamond Member status with the Portland Metropolitan Association of Realtors for more than 15 years because of her consistently impressive sales results.

Joan knows Portland as well as anyone. She knows the market like the back of her hand, having ridden the wave from 18 percent interest down to four. And she knows people: how to listen, what families want and need (having raised one herself), and how to really zero-in on the perfect home or investment property. It's why people call her again and again - and why they rave about her style, charm, and results.

There's more to Joan than meets the eye. For one, she grew up on the edge of a cliff in Northwest Montana! And as a young mother of three, she was the receptionist for Governor Tom McCall, arguably Oregon's most revered governor for his environmental practices and ability to bridge the political divide.

Joan is a world traveler, an accomplished home chef (ask about her killer rhubarb pie), and an avid gardener. And she loves her cats almost as much as her grandchildren!
