I grew up in Campbell River and have spent most of my adult life here. It is the best place to live! 

My husband Michael and I have a blended family of 6 fantastic children – all grown up – and 3 dear grandchildren. Michael also grew up in Campbell River and like me, he appreciates how lucky we are with our surroundings of ocean, rivers, lakes and small islands to explore.

My career as a licensed Realtor began here in my hometown in 2005. I love every minute of helping our clients with all their real estate needs. My aim is to make the process enjoyable, seamless and stress-free. Our clients can count on me to be there for them any time of day when they have a question or a concern throughout the process of working together.

I have achieved many Realtor high performance awards during my real estate career, including obtaining Platinum status 4 years in a row.

Let my extensive knowledge, years of excellent client service and experience guide you through every phase of your successful real estate transaction. I welcome all my past clients and future clients to contact us anytime. 

Also…..ich spreche Deutsch! (I speak German)


Ian Hird
Unlicensed Assistant, Client Care & Photographer

I was born and raised on Vancouver Island. In 1996 I moved to Campbell River to continue my career as a Forestry Engineer.  After my career in forestry, I worked in the construction industry and was a manager for a local Campbell River business.  

I was eager to start working together with my wife Vanessa to help build her thriving real estate business to include more “in ‘house” services not offered by other real estate teams.  In 2020 I joined her and we created a team.

J have completed the real estate course and am an unlicensed assistant. I am also a skilled handyman with a truck and trailer and I often help our clients prepare their homes for sale by offering my services including dump runs, power washing, changing lighting and mowing lawns. I developed my photography skills and became one of the talented photographers that Vanessa uses for our marketing. I provide drone photography, professional floor plans and I operate our top-of-the-line 3D virtual tour camera. I spend hours developing our marketing videos and am happily the man behind the scenes helping with all administrative duties and client care.

I enjoy working with our clients.  We can offer our clients 24 hrs from Vanessa’s expert market evaluation to having your property listed on the MLS if needed. That is the beauty of combining our talents and passion for real estate service.  When Vanessa is providing her staging consultation, she often offers my services to help the home or property shine. I look forward to meeting you.
