Real Estate Agent

About

A proud native of Craig and long-time Grand Valley resident, I bring a unique blend of academic excellence, entrepreneurial grit, and deep-rooted Western Slope values to every transaction. My professional foundation began in education; I earned a B.A. from the University of Arizona and a Master of Science from New Mexico State University. My graduate research and published thesis in Exercise and Sports Science reflect the rigorous analytical skills and attention to detail I now apply to the real estate market. Since 1990, I have navigated the complexities of business ownership, transitioning into real estate in 1994. With over three decades as an active investor and "flipper," I possess a practical understanding of market value that only comes from years of hands-on renovation. I don’t just see a house; I see the underlying bones and the future investment potential. I specialize in high-stakes, sensitive transitions where expertise is non-negotiable. As a Probate and Divorce Real Estate Specialist and published author on the subject, I provide empathetic guidance during life’s most challenging chapters. My toolkit includes elite certifications as a Real Estate Negotiator, Business Development Agent, and the At Home with Diversity (AHWD) designation, ensuring sophisticated representation for every client. Professional Memberships: NAR, CAR, and GJARA (Grand Junction Area Realtors). When not at the closing table, I stay true to the rugged lifestyle of Western Colorado. An avid hunter, I spend time exploring our vast public lands, giving me intimate, "boots-on-the-ground" knowledge of the local terrain. I also give back by coaching local athletes and experimenting in the kitchen. Whether perfecting a recipe or a multi-million dollar deal, I believe the secret to success is always in the details. Whether you are flipping a diamond in the rough or navigating a complex transition, I ensure your move is handled with integrity and local insight.
