Profile

As a real estate professional, I take pride in being a great listener and understanding the complex financial and emotional issues surrounding the purchase of a home or investment.  Every opportunity and client is unique and should be treated as such; I therefore strive to find the right properties to match my clients lifestyle and investment needs, moving as quickly as possible from the start of a search or listing, through to an accepted offer and closing.  

Prior to launching my career in Real Estate I worked for 8 years as an interior design professional launching my own firm in 2008, during this time Real Estate agents sought my design expertise and commissioned my consultations to help their clients envision the possibilities of a 'so so' property becoming their dream home! Additionally, I recommended tips for staging properties to garner the best possible sales price for their clients.  Given my professional experience; becoming a licensed real estate agent seemed a natural progression and I am now able to work directly and intimately with my own buyers and sellers to envision potential, negotiate a fair market price and convey to sellers how to present their home in the best light for a faster sale.

On a personal note, I was fortunate to grow up in a small-town in Iowa where I learned the value and strength of community at a young age.  I left Andover after High School to expand my horizons and experience other great communities.   One of my favorite communities was at St. Ambrose University, where I graduated with a BA in Marketing and learned the importance of service work and giving to others.   While attending Ambrose I was fortunate to become part of the Cheley Colorado Camps community, where I spent my summers working as a counselor and director through college and learned the value of inspiring our youth and being a team player.  I also spent a very memorable year in San Francisco and landed in Denver in 2003 - a big town in small town clothing with a great sense of community.  I am very proud to call Denver home and spend much of my time keeping abreast of not only what is happening in the local residential and commercial real estate markets now but also how Denver will develop and flourish over the next 5, 10, 15 & 30 years and how that will impact my sellers and buyers.
