We have been residents of Central Oregon for 19 years now, having owned and operated the Village Bar and Grill Restaurant in the Sunriver Village Mall for 14 years before deciding to turn our energies to real estate sales. We are very active in the Sunriver community, Marcus having served as a past Board member of the Sunriver Area Chamber of Commerce, he is a memebr of the Sunriver Rotary Club and serves on the Ballot Committee for the Sunriver Owner's Association. Connie served eight years on the Board of the Deschutes County Commission for Children and Families, she is a member of the Parks and Recreation Committee for the Sunriver Owner's Association and is chair of the Tennis Strategic Planning Committee.
We are about to celbrate 27 years of marriage. We have two beautiful daughters. After graduating from Linfield College, Monica, our oldest daughter spent three years in Bend as the Program Manager for Camp Fire. She currently resides in Whitefish Montana. She is an avid snowboarder, hiker, and basketball player. Kelsea, our younger daughter, is studying environmental engineering at Oregon State University and has recently participated in an exchange program that placed her in New Zealand to pursue her studies. When she's not studying she is exploring, training for triathlons, hiking, golfing, or floating rivers. She was a member of the 2-time State Champion Bend High girls golf team. Wow! She made our golf games look really shabby!
Marcus graduated from Bucknell University in Pennsylvania with a Bachelor´s Degree in Accounting in 1979. Connie graduated from Nursing School in Boston and enjoyed a long career as a registered nurse. She also has a Bachelor's Degree in Business from St. Joseph's College in Maine. In the 1980´s we owned the Home Plate Restaurant in Aspen Colorado, which we operated until 1989 when we visited Sunriver and fell in love with Central Oregon and the Central Oregon lifestyle. We found it a wonderful place to raise our two daughters! In our spare time we enjoy everything Central Oregon is famous for: golfing, tennis, whitewater kayaking, hiking, biking and skiing. You might also see Marcus officiating a basketball game somewhere in Central Oregon. And you can find Connie hiking in nearby National Forest land with our dogs.
We look forward to putting our knowledge and love for Central Oregon, and all that it offers, to work for you. With 27 years of experience in hospitality business ownership, we understand how to serve our customers. We look forward to serving as your real estate professionals.
