Renee Martin, Vice President
Renee is enamored by the charms of the old world and believes that Ballard is chock full of it. A PNW native with Scandinavian heritage, she doubled-down on Ballard in 2005 when she bought and started the process of preserving two homes in the Bow Addition, one built in 1911 and the other in 1915. Renee studied the history of art and has worked with photography archives. Today, she is a management consultant who helps businesses and non-profits align and scale their organizations. Contact
