Get to Know Me


I live in Lagoon City full time with my family and I love the community and the lifestyle that comes with living on the water! After 25+ years of living and raising a family in Oakville and Niagara area, I have to say that Lagoon City is an absolutely wonderful place to call home! I am a member of Keyspire, an international real estate investment network, and I continue to personally invest in real estate in Ontario.

I love waterfront in Lagoon City and I have in-depth knowledge of the area which will help you make a thoroughly informed decision. Buyers and sellers will benefit from my local waterfront expertise and I can guide you through your real estate journey with confidence. I started my real estate career in August 2020 with RE/MAX Edge - The Kate Bassett Team, which provided me with a wealth of experience and knowledge. In addition to real estate sales, I have more than 25 years of professional recruitment experience working with many large national and international engineering and consulting firms as a headhunter on engineering and environmental mining related projects.

I ran my own business for most of these years and was very successful in locating and securing hundreds of uniquely qualified engineers and consulting professionals for my clients in Canada and the US. I developed strong trusting relationships with hundreds of candidates and clients in North America. My entrepreneurial background and passion to locate and qualify leads, coupled with my communication, negotiating and sales abilities has made the transition into real estate sales quite seamless.
