Amy Jorgenson is an owner/partner of Dwell Door County Real Estate. Originally from Elmhurst, Illinois, she spent her childhood and teen years visiting her grandfather, who lived on Washington Island. She fell in love with the beauty of Door County and the people of Washington Island and assisted her grandfather into his later years on the Island.  At that time, she decided she someday wanted to make Washington Island and Door County a permanent part of her life. 

Amy graduated from Illinois State University, where she majored in Mass Communication and minored in Photography. She worked at major advertising agencies in Chicago as a Computer Graphic Specialist.  On one of her trips to the Island to see her family, she met her now husband, Michael Jorgenson. Mike was born and raised on Washington Island and is a Lineman for the Washington Island Electric Cooperative and the owner of Jorgenson Excavation.  Amy worked for a local publisher in Sister Bay when she first moved to the “Door”, continuing her graphics/marketing career. After she helped Mike construct their Island home, she realized she had a passion for not only Door County, the Island, the people.... but found a love of building and creating a home.
