Get to know me
Hi, I’m Dona.
I’m a real estate professional with a strong background in marketing and sales. Before becoming a full-time real estate agent, I worked for a North American home builder, managing marketing and sales for new construction homes. That experience shaped my approach: helping clients make confident, well-informed decisions in today’s market.
Since then, I’ve had the privilege of guiding buyers and sellers across the greater Seattle area, supporting first-time homeowners, families navigating major life changes, and sellers looking to maximize their investment.
