WHY REAL ESTATE?
PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCES, LIFE, AGE AND EXPERIMENTATION EVENTUALLY HELPED ME UNDERSTAND MY DEEPER CORE LOVES AND TALENTS APART FROM HOW I CHOSE TO APPLY THEM. AT THIS SAME TIME I BEGAN YEARNING FOR HOME, COMMUNITY, STABILITY AND SUSTAINABILITY. ALL OF WHICH BROUGHT ME HERE, ABSOLUTELY LOVING THIS INDUSTRY AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO CARVE MY OWN UNIQUE PATH WITHIN IT. TO SAY THAT ITS BEEN AN UNEXPECTED SURPRISE HAVING FOUND SUCH HARMONY AND FULFILLMENT AS A REALTOR IN MY HOMETOWN WOULD BE A DRASTIC UNDERSTATEMENT. DESPITE GROWING UP AS AN ARCHITECT’S DAUGHTER AND MARRYING A REAL ESTATE APPRAISER, I NEVER PERSONALLY IDENTIFIED WITH THIS INDUSTRY.
I TRUSTED EACH INSTINCT AND STEP THAT LED ME HERE AND HAVE BEEN SO RICHLY REWARDED FOR THROWING DOGMATIC IDEAS OF MY SELF IDENTITY AND WHERE I “SHOULD” BE IN THE TRASH. THESE THINGS THAT HAVE BENEFITTED ME SO RICHLY IN MY OWN LIFE ARE A BIG PART OF WHAT I AM HERE TO SHARE WITH YOU.
MY BACKGROUND HAS MADE ME UNIQUELY QUALIFIED TO:
WEAVE THE THREADS OF YOUR VARIED CIRCUMSTANCES AND NEEDS INTO SOMETHING SOLID, REAL & ATTAINABLE
LEVERAGE YOUR INHERENT STRENGTHS AS WE PURSUE AND ACHIEVE YOUR GOALS
WORK WITH, NOT AGAINST, PERCEIVED OBSTACLES
MOTIVATE & INSPIRE YOU TO EXPLORE new ideas and re-examine those discarded with a different perspective
ENJOY THE PROCESS OF GETTING YOU WHERE YOU WANT TO GO……AND BEYOND!
hANKS FOR YOUR INTEREST IN ME & OUR COLLABORATION. I’M A LICENSED REALTOR AND CERTIFIED NEGOTIATION EXPERT, SPECIALIZING IN RESIDENTIAL + RESORT REAL ESTATE. I FEEL SO LUCKY TO BE SERVICING MY MAGICAL MOUNTAIN HOMETOWN OF PARK CITY, UTAH, THE SURROUNDING LAKES, RESORTS & VALLEYS WE ALL LOVE AND THE HISTORIC, CHARMING, ARCHITECTURALLY DIVERSE AREAS OF SALT LAKE CITY, WHERE I CURRENTLY LIVE. THE BALANCE IS PHENOMENAL & PROVIDES SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE.
MY BACKGROUND
FOR MOST OF MY LIFE I’VE IDENTIFIED AS A LOGICAL CREATIVE, THREADING THE NEEDLE BETWEEN PASSION AND PRACTICALITY. ALTHOUGH DRAWN TO THE ARTS & DESIGN AT A YOUNG AGE, IT WAS NEVER ENOUGH JUST TO MAKE OR ENJOY THE THING. I ALSO HAD TO CONTEXTUALIZE IT, SEE ITS VALUE OR PURPOSE AND MAKE IT USEFUL TO THAT END. THAT THEME HAS ONLY GROWN IN ME OVER TIME AND I USE IT DAILY, IN MY WORK AND PERSONAL LIFE.
AFTER SPENDING AN IDYLLIC CHILDHOOD GROWING UP IN PARK CITY I focused ON ARCHITECTURE, followed by DRAWING & PAINTING at the university of utah.. I SPENT THE FOLLOWING DECADE experimenting WHILE IN THE EARLY STAGES OF MARRIAGE AND MOTHERHOOD. I WORKED AS A DRAFTSMAN FOR BOTH AN ARCHITECT AND AN INTERIOR DESIGNer, ENJOYED SEVERAL YEARS IN BANKING AND sales/CUSTOMER SERVICE AND MADE ART, IN VARIOUS MEDIUMS, ALONG THE WAY (If you every want to jam or need a beautiful cake, i was in a band for a handful of years, recorded my own novice album and founded sugarhouse cake boutique during this time).
AS MY FAMILY GREW SO DID I, concentrating my efforts into building a SUCCESSFUL, decades long, CAREER IN COMMERCIAL, EVENT & EDITORIAL PHOTOGRAPHY. THIS TIME PERIOD AND WORK SERVEd AS A TREMENDOUS TEACHER, TAKING ME AROUND THE GLOBE AND WITHIN MYSELF TO BECOME DIVERSELY PROFICIENT IN WAYS THAT WOULD serve me personally and professionally.
REAL ESTATE IS SO MUCH MORE
I FEEL SO DEEPLY FORTUNATE TO HAVE FOUND MY own MAGIC IN THIS NUANCED COLLECTION OF CONCEPTS THAT WE CALL REAL ESTATE. JUST LIKE EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US, IT’S ABOUT SO MUCH MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE. JUST AS UNDERSTANDING BEYOND DOGMA YIELDS success AND WELLBEING IN ANYTHING, WALKING THIS JOURNEY WITH SOMEONE WHO IS PRACTICED IN SPOTTING AND USING AUTHENTICITY AND UNIQUENESS WILL GET YOU WHERE YOU WANT (ANY DIDN’T KNOW YOU WANTED) TO GO. YES, YOU MIGHT JUST FIND THAT PERFECT PROPERTY, INVESTMENT OR BUYER, BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY, YOU’LL FIND A DEEPER APPRECIATION FOR WHAT SUPPORTS AND MOTIVATES YOUR REAL ESTATE GOALS.
LISTENING. SEEING, TRANSLATING AND.FINDING THE NATURAL WIN, WIN, WIN. THAT’S WHAT I LOVE. THAT’S WHAT I’M GOOD AT. THAT’S WHAT MAKES ME UNIQUE IN THIS INDUSTRY.
THAT’S WHAT LANDS YOU ON TOP.
REAL ESTATE IS THE FOUNDATION UPON WHICH WE BUILD OUR LIVES; THE HEARTH AROUND WHICH WE COLLECT OUR HOPES, DREAMS, PEOPLE WE LOVE AND RICH LIVES WE ENJOY.
THIS IS WHY REAL ESTATE MATTERS, AND WHY MY JOB MATTERS TO ME.
BECAUSE YOU MATTER. YOUR FRIENDS & FAMILY MATTER.
YOUR QUALITY OF LIFE MATTERS.
