With over 20 years of experience and several hundred successfully closed transactions, Katrina combines her expertise with a warm, client-focused approach to real estate. Her journey into real estate was preceded by a successful career in photography, where her attention to detail and project management skills seamlessly transitioned into handling the complexities of real estate transactions. Just as with photography, Katrina knows that creating the perfect outcome—whether it’s a beautiful photo or a successful closing—requires precision, teamwork, and a clear vision.

Katrina’s reputation is built on caring, sharp negotiation skills, solid judgment, and a commitment to providing sound advice. Her business thrives primarily on repeat clients and referrals, a testament to the trust she builds with those she serves. Katrina loves working with people, guiding them through the process, problem solving and piecing together a feeling of a win-win that, ideally, leaves all parties walking away with a feeling that their most important needs have been met. And she has a deep appreciation for the beautiful architecture in her community. This is truly a special place with something for everyone.

Partnered with Compass, one of the nation’s most forward-thinking real estate firms, Katrina leverages cutting-edge technology and client-focused tools to offer the best possible service. Compass’s commitment to professionalism, ethics, and a mission to help people find their place in the world aligns perfectly with her personal values.

In addition to her broad real estate expertise, Katrina is a founding member of Compass Plus, a pioneering initiative dedicated to serving older adults and their families in the real estate market. After navigating her mother’s Alzheimer’s diagnosis and stepping into a caregiving role, Katrina developed firsthand knowledge of the challenges aging homeowners face. Her experience managing long-term care, financial planning, and personal support allows her to offer empathetic and informed guidance to seniors and their loved ones as they navigate real estate transitions.

Born in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Katrina grew up in San Francisco, spent 25 years in Hollywood, and now enjoys life in beautiful Altadena. Outside of real estate, she loves photography, music, hiking, reading, travel, and enjoying great wine and good conversation. She also loves her dog; Georgie Poocher La Rou. So, if you want to go for a hike with the dogs, talk real estate and then enjoy a fine meal to celebrate your closing, give Katrina a call!
