Born in Asheville, Jessi cultivated a deep connection to Western North Carolina in her youngest years. Her family, seeking adventure and something new, moved to the west when she was a teenager, where she spent the last couple of decades living and exploring the endless wilderness of Colorado, California, and Bend, Oregon. Here is where she developed a deep appreciation for mountain culture, outdoor adventure, and communities rooted in nature. Most recently, Jessi and her family spent a year living aboard a sailboat in the Caribbean, an experience filled with salty air, remote anchorages, and a reminder that the best parts of life are often the simplest, and found surrounded by the wild and the closeness of community.

Western North Carolina has called Jessi back, as it has the perfect blend of wilderness and coziness. Lush waterfalls, and small-town charm. Mountain biking trails and the kind of tight-knit community you’d want to call family. After having lived in many different places, moved many times, invested in and sold properties in various areas, her approach to real estate is equal parts knowledgeable, adventurous, and down-to-earth; because she believes finding the right home should feel exciting, not stressful.  

She has always considered herself a match-maker of sorts, in her work in the non-profit world, as well as in real estate. Finding the right fit for her clients is thrilling and satisfying! Known for her creativity, communication, and approachable personality, Jessi works hard to make every real estate experience feel personal, supportive, and empowering. Whether helping first-time buyers, relocating families, investors, or sellers preparing for a new chapter, she brings calm guidance and genuine enthusiasm to every step of the process.

When she’s not working with clients, Jessi can usually be found outside moving in nature with her family, whether it be biking, climbing, hiking, looking at plants, you name it! She is proud to raise her kids in such a vibrant corner of the world.
