Why Choose Design Realty
Thank you for taking the time to learn a bit more about us. You have a lot of options out there, and it can be a bit of a process just deciding who to work with.
Real estate brokers are all independent contractors, meaning every broker you meet is operating their own business. Because of this, brokers must spend time looking for new business in order to sustain their small business. A good portion of their time is spent on SALES, trying to generate business, rather than on servicing the clients they have.
We believe our brokers time is better spent with you. Sarah and I started this firm with the idea that we wanted to have full time brokers completely focused on their clients. We support our brokers behind the scenes with whatever they need, so they can do what they do best. Our brokers are true professionals in every sense of the word. You will be in good hands working with them. We encourage you to challenge any broker you engage with to answer your questions competently and to your satisfaction. We are confident you will find ours to be the best.
Professional Realty Services is a licensed real estate broker and abides by Equal Housing Opportunity laws.

In 2017 my husband and I made the move from Indiana to the PNW having no idea what would come out of it. Fast forward to today, where we have planted roots and are obsessed with the outdoor space and exploring all it has to offer.
If you had asked me 5 years ago where I would see myself, I don't imagine I would have ever said "running a real estate brokerage", none the less said it with a smile. I found a career that not only am I good at, but I feel passionate about. Being in the Director of Operations role, I have the opportunity to work closely with our team and manage its development and growth. Working closely with like-minded individuals, and building a company so unique and so worthwhile is the most fulfilling position I could hold.
Kevin and his team were very professional from beginning to end. Keeping in contact and updating me were keys throughout the process. In addition, they were very helpful with upgrades and staging during the process of the sale of my house.

Sold a home in 2020 in Everett, WA.
I got my Real Estate Broker license in 2010 and immediately started working with distressed homeowners, listing and selling short sales. It is such an amazing and fulfilling feeling being able to help people navigate out of such crippling financial situations.
In January of 2015, I joined on with property management company as a Community Association Manager, managing a large portfolio of condominium and homeowner associations as well as a multi-family property. This diversified my experience and knowledge, specifically in the community management and multi-family property management fields. I continue to manage a 51 unit multi-family building in Rainier Beach.
In 2019 I joined Design Realty. Merging my years of experience with a company who’s values align with my own, has been the experience of a life time. I take pride in my work and am recognized as a true professional in the industry.
I grew up in Woodinville and have enjoyed watching the city grow over the years. My passion for helping people lead me to study biology at WWU. After earning a B.S. in biology, I moved to Southern California where I worked as a lab tech and eventually Lab Coordinator. I decided to move back home to the beautiful PNW to be closer to family. I've always had a deep interest in real estate and interior design so I'm thrilled to have transitioned my skillset from Lab Coordinator to Listing Coordinator. I'll use my strong attention to detail and creativity to coordinate contractors, stage, and market your home. Preparing to sell your home can be daunting. Let me take some of the weight off your shoulders by handling the details. I love connecting with clients and helping them get their homes market ready. Teaming up with our talented brokers to guide clients through the listing process is truly a joy! Outside of work, I enjoy playing basketball, spending time with family, and playing with my Chihuahua- Mastiff mix, Maggie.

I've lived in the NW all my life and have been fortunate enough to witness firsthand the growth and development of this beautiful region. I have nearly a decade of experience in real estate - being a real estate investor since 2012, working with investor clients, along with my role as a traditional real estate broker. I'm able to look at traditional real estate through a little bit of a different lense having been in the trenches as an investor; this wisdom allows me to look out for my clients in diverse ways.
My favorite part about being a real estate broker is helping home buyers and sellers get what they want and to be a part of, what is for many, one of the most important decisions of their life. My clients deserve to know every detail about the process and their investment - good or bad. I work hard to eliminate gray area, negotiate, streamline the process, and make my clients selling or purchasing experience as seamless as possible.
I started my sales career at Cadillac of Bellevue where I was able to sharpen and master the art of negotiation. I quickly realized that while I enjoyed this, I'd rather use my skills to negotiate on behalf of a client versus against them. The saying is that a car is the second biggest financial purchase of a person's life, while a home is the first. Naturally, this led me to real estate. Being in the Seattle region for 20+ years gives me the knowledge to guide my clients to the area's best suited for their needs and help them understand current market trends. Outside of real estate, you can find me on the golf course shanking my tee shot or missing a 3-foot putt. Rest assured, I am a much better real estate broker than I am a golf player! And as every good bio is not complete without: I am a HUGE animal lover. I have a Siberian Husky and Shiba Inu back home. I'd love to adopt more, but those two have enough energy (and shed enough) for 5 dogs!
With a background in home construction, being raised by a home builder, owning a couple of appliances stores and then working in residential remodeling business, I have always had a love of homes. My experience also includes 6 years in the financial industry, so getting my real estate license in 2013 was a very natural and easy transition. I have been helping people with buying and selling their homes ever since and truly have a job that I love. When I am not working I am with my 3 wonderful kids and husband or on the tennis court!
Having 11 years of experience being a volunteer ski patrol, I hold value in helping others and being the one you can lean on. Trust, loyalty and competitiveness drive me to be the professional broker I am today.
I am a Seattle native and I know his area like the back of my hand. This gives me the ability to give you guidance on the best areas to find your new home.
My beautiful wife and I have a 2 year old son that we were fortunate enough to adopt and join our family. We have 3 dogs that fill our off time at our home in Renton.
I maintain a pragmatic, service-driven approach with every real estate transaction. My passion for real estate started early, when at the age of 23 I left my Emergency Medical career as a Paramedic to pursue my real estate business. My success can be attributed to my dedication to networking and marketing, my savvy negotiation skills, and ultimately, my relentless pursuit of client satisfaction. My diverse experience allows me to provide unique insights and exceptional real estate client experiences.
I cherish spending quality time with my spouse, Family, and local WA friend groups. When I’m not at home or at the office, I can be found enjoying the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest or biking the local trails and parks of the Puget Sound. Let me guide you through your next real estate transaction and show you what true client satisfaction is all about.
I was born in Southern California and was able to learn from my father being a real estate investor. I found everything about it fascinating from the numbers to the power of money. In 2018, I graduated from Stanford University with a degree in Neuroscience. I followed that by leading marketing and partnerships with tech giants like Amazon and Facebook to further promote a product that would soon become acquired by Facebook.
While studying at Stanford, I was a TA in Neuroscience and had the opportunity to teach and grade a class of over 100 students. I find fulfillment in teaching and explaining high level concepts in ways that are easy to understand. Being a real estate investor myself, I want to provide as much information to you and recommendations based on my experience. Growing wealth through real estate is fun! I am constantly tracking market trends and predicting what is going to occur in this market.
Whether you are a first time home buyer or a seasoned real estate investor, I would be honored to represent you as we work together to fulfill your lifestyle and financial goals. Buying a home is one of the biggest purchases you will make and I will have your back every step of the way as I guide, plan, inform and empower you as we walk through the process.
Growing up in Ukraine, I observed my parents lifestyle as full time real estate brokers and builders. I immediately knew that was what I wanted to do when moving to the states in 2013.
In 2018, I got my real estate broker license and began working with single family homes and new build developments. It is humbling and powerful knowing the trust my clients put in me with one of life’s biggest investments.

Growing up in Lake Stevens and observing my father navigate his way through purchasing multiple properties, I knew I was on the fast track to being in real estate. I bought my first Triplex at 20 years old and my second at 23 years old. In 2020, I bought a 24 unit. In 2021, I found Design Realty and merged my years of experience with a company who’s values align with my own.
I thrive in real estate, it is truly my biggest passion. I take pride in being able to teach others about the market and how to navigate it in a successful way. Whether it’s a duplex that you want to purchase or your next home, I am excited to have the opportunity to work with you.
In my off hours, you can find me snowboarding in the mountains or spending time with my friends and family.
I have always had a fascination with architecture and interior design because my father was a structural engineer and my mother was an architect. In 2011, I came to the United States as a civil-environmental engineering student. I instantly fell in love with the beauty of Washington and have been living here ever since. My passion for human connection and cultural background have helped me make life-long friends from all over the world. I bring that same energy into my career as a real estate broker. I want my clients to feel comfortable sharing with me what they need and understand that I am here to help. When I am not working to find my clients their perfect homes, you can find me exploring a new restaurant, filming a video for my Youtube channel, or getting lost on a hike somewhere.
I was born in Ukraine and at 6 years old I made my way to the States with my family.
From a young age, my motivation and drive have been the forefront of my life and allowed me to succeed in entrepreneurship. My passion is being able to connect with people from all walks of life.

With 23 years of mortgage loan experience, I have helped hundreds of families reach their dream of homeownership. That is why in 2017 I decided to also get my real estate license. This allows me to help clients find that special home and also help them understand the home loan process. My business is solely based on referrals and repeat customers. This has been done through excellent communication and honesty throughout the home search process. When I am away from the office, I enjoy spending time with my wife Gina and my two children, Trey and Ali. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me today and allow me to put my experience to work for you and your family.
The whole first time home buying experience with David Evans was a breeze. I highly recommend him. He was really helpful from the time we scheduled a time to look at my new home, all the way to closing and getting the keys.

Bought a home in 2018 in Everett, WA.
My family came to the PNW from Laos in 1989 and I never left the area. Growing up in Kirkland, Bellevue, and Lynnwood area I had the benefit of seeing our area grow and go through some great transformation over the last few decades. I dedicated my time climbing the corporate ladder the last 16 years. However, in 2021 I started investing aggressively in multi-family long term and short-term rentals and fell in love with the process of buying for myself and helping friends and families navigate the home buying process during one of the most competitive market in recent times. My procurement and contract negotiation background in the corporate setting is a competitive advantage that serve my clients in this environment very well. Whether you are a first-time buyer, experienced buyer, seller or investor I would love the opportunity to learn about you and help turn your vision/dream into reality. Outside of my passion for real estate, I enjoy traveling internationally with my beautiful wife and daughter and learning about different cultures through food and drinks, hiking and running. I also volunteer my time mentoring under-privileged youths from my home country (Laos) to become the best versions of themselves.

Moving from Orange County, Ca to the greater Seattle area in 2009, it did not take long for me to fall in love with the PNW. Recognizing at a young age that I was destined to become an entrepreneur; I began to develop online brands and businesses including income producing YouTube channels and a private label Amazon business. These ventures taught me the importance of authenticity, effective marketing and how to set and abide by core values.
