Hello Friends!! Welcome to my LinkedIn page. Let me introduce myself…I am a native of the Grand Valley but have had the privilege of traveling to over 17 countries and 39 states in my lifetime. However, life in the Grand Valley kept calling me back and for the last 15 years I have called Grand Junction home. My professional life began in the corporate world where I utilized my degree in Computer Science and eventually became a vice president. Even while working in the corporate world, real estate called to me. I would buy a home, renovate and sell – over and over again. Eventually, I decided to take the real estate licensing exam and become a full time realtor. In 2002, I went to work at RE/MAX 4000, Inc. and have loved every minute of it. Helping clients, whether they are first-time home buyers or seasoned real estate investors, is a privilege. When those clients then become lifelong friends; that is an honor and my ultimate goal. My business is about not about building a mound of completed transactions but building a mountain of friendships. During my time with RE/MAX 4000 I have studied and obtained several designations as well as multiple awards for my success in real estate, including:Designations★Cert. Luxury Home Marketing Specialist ★Cert. Residential Specialist ★Accredited Commercial Professional ★Graduate, Realtor Institute ★Accredited Buyer’s Representative ★E-Pro Certification ★Cert. New Home Specialist ★Cert. Real Estate NegotiatorAwards★RE/MAX Hall of Fame ★Platinum Club ★100% ClubOutside of the real estate world, I serve on the foundation board for HopeWest, which provides palliative care, hospice and grief support to the Grand Valley. When I am not serving clients or volunteering for HopeWest, I like to take advantage of the breathtaking scenery and outdoor activities the Grand Valley has to offer such as skiing, mountain biking, hiking, golfing, wind surfing and yoga.
