Life In North Idaho

About Kathleen

Welcome to my site, and thank you for taking the time to find out a little more about me!I am a California girl, born and raised near Irvine.  I loved being outdoors in the warm weather year round, and loved being near the ocean!  I moved to Northern California with my parents during my sophomore year in college, and couldn’t believe how cold it was (little did I know where I would end up!).  I graduated from college, and worked on patrol as a police officer for about 8 years in the Bay Area of California.  Those were in the olden days where being a female officer was a novelty!  I loved the job, but once I started my family I ended up staying home for several years. I have 3 wonderful daughters, and was very involved in their schools over 20 years!  I have been past PTA president at Dalton Elementary and Canfield Middle Schools, and was very involved at Coeur d’Alene High School. I am lucky enough now to have 2 grandsons….being a grandma is the best! Relocating to North Idaho was a surprise, and I must say the thought of living in the snow for the first time wasn’t something on my wish list! As it turns out, I love living here, and couldn’t imagine going anywhere else. The area is beautiful, family is important, shopping and dining are plentyful, and I am only 30 minutes from the airport for last minute trips! I have been an agent with Coldwell Banker for the past 11 years, specializing in residential resale, second homes, and the luxury market. I love selling real estate, and enjoy helping clients relocate to the area. I remember moving here without knowing anything about the schools, neighborhoods or community. I understand the needs of my out of state clients, and take the time to educate and direct them to the perfect area and home!  I also have a wonderful group of past clients/friends that I have been lucky enought to get to know over the years! Please feel free to explore my site, enjoy my blog, and contact me if you have any question on the area!
