Growing up in the flatlands of Ohio, moving west was a dream. I have always loved being in the outdoors. I graduated from Houghton College in Western New York with a Bachelors Degree in Psychology and Therapeutic Recreation with a minor in business, and went on my way. First I landed in Colorado Springs for a year or so, married at 23, we spent our first year of marriage hiking mountains and skiing when we could. An opportunity presented itself in Running Springs and my husband and I loved the idea of living IN the mountains, after a year of driving TO the mountains in Colorado...we were stoked. Fast forward 20ish years and 3 kids later, we have fallen in love with this community. The first things that come to mind that I love are small town living, hiking trails, and snow sports. I have always loved the mountains because you hike them one step at a time, kind of like big transitions in life- they look overwhelming and huge- but little by little you make progress toward your goal until finally...you reach it. And that sums up my passion, helping people reach their goals. I will share honestly whatever I can in the process, and sometimes that means it's not what you want to hear...but that's what I'm here for. Whether it is selling your home, or buying a new one, finding your getaway house or your very own base camp- or finding a home for full time living- I like helping people make things happen. I have found this job so rewarding because when you love where you live it's natural to want to share it with others. I love meeting new people, adventures in business and in the outdoors and am grateful for the opportunity to learn new things all the time.  That's a little about me, let's talk about you!
