-About me-

Originally from Excelsior, MN, I graduated from the U of M-Twin Cities and worked in Corporate Sales until November 2011. That's when I dropped everything and drove West in search of my dream lifestyle. As a 10-year resident of Breckenridge I have a true love and deep understanding of Summit County and surrounding areas. Kindness, Honesty, and Integrity are core values that have helped me make connections and develop a strong network of professionals throughout Summit County and beyond. I have over 20 years of Sales and Customer Service experience. Prior to embarking on my journey in real estate I was the lead server of the Briar Rose, one of Summit County’s most prestigious restaurants . My “fine dining” approach makes my level of service unique in this competitive industry. From our first conversation through closing day, ensuring that your questions are answered and needs are met in a timely manner will be my top priority. I thrive on building lifelong relationships and will take pride in showing you everything that life in the mountains has to offer! In my free time I take advantage of Colorado's ideal year-round climate with my partner Kristin and our dogs Rocco and Walter. We love to snowboard, mountain bike, play golf, paddle board, fly fish, camp, cook and photograph our adventures along the way. If you have any questions about buying or selling property in Summit County, contact me at 952-240-7197. I look forward to helping you make your mountain lifestyle dreams come true!

Ski season is close enough that we can officially start pretending our weekend plans are “weather dependent.”

Colorado resorts are starting to release their target opening windows, which means it is time to think about where you’ll head once the lifts start spinning.
If you’re coming from Denver, the classics are hard to beat. Loveland, A Basin, Keystone, Winter Park, Copper, and Breckenridge are all popular for a reason. Early season days may be limited, but they still count.

From Colorado Springs, Monarch is always a favorite, and Ski Cooper is a great option for something a little more relaxed. Copper and Breckenridge are also doable when you’re ready to make a full mountain day out of it.

From Northern Colorado, Eldora, Winter Park, and Steamboat all deserve a spot on the list depending on how much drive time you’re willing to trade for snow.

As always, opening dates depend on weather, snowmaking, and mountain conditions, so check directly with the resort before you pack the car.

Colorado’s market is not moving the exact same way everywhere.

Denver, Colorado Springs, and Northern Colorado are each showing their own version of a more balanced market. Some areas have more homes available. Some are taking longer to sell. Some are still holding steady when a home is priced well, presented well, and located where buyers want to be.

For buyers, this can mean more options, more time to compare, and a little more breathing room than we saw in the ultra-competitive years.

For sellers, it means strategy matters. Pricing correctly from the start, preparing the home well, and understanding what buyers are responding to in your specific area can make a real difference.

The biggest takeaway is this: there is no single “Colorado market.”
Denver is not Colorado Springs. Colorado Springs is not Northern Colorado. And even within those regions, the numbers can shift quickly from one neighborhood, price point, or property type to the next.

Before making a move, it helps to look beyond the headline number and get specific.

Thinking about buying or selling this fall? Let’s look at what the numbers mean for your specific area.

Data reflects recent public market snapshots from REcolorado, PPAR/elevateMLS, IRES MLS, and Realtor.com. Northern Colorado active listings and average days on market are a combined snapshot of Fort Collins, Greeley, Loveland, and Longmont.

Broncos season is back, which means it is officially time to figure out where you are watching the game.

Whether you are there for the football, the food, the atmosphere, or just an excuse to get everyone together on a Sunday, Colorado has plenty of places to catch the game.

Some spots are big, loud, and built for a crowd. Some are more relaxed neighborhood places where you can grab a table, order food, and actually hear the people you came with.

Some Colorado homes come with a backyard. Others come with a lake, creek, or river right outside.

From Grand Lake and Dillon to Evergreen, Burns, Larkspur, and Red Cliff, these homes make it very easy to spend more time outside. Morning coffee by the water, afternoons on the lake, and the sound of a creek in the background, it’s hard to beat.

A few waterfront homes worth a look:
12906 US Highway 34, Grand Lake
1054 Straight Creek Drive, Dillon
4743 S Cedar Road, Evergreen
25511 Colorado River Road, Burns
6234 Nautique Circle, Larkspur
407 Water Street, Red Cliff

Summer in Colorado makes it easy to turn an ordinary day into something worth remembering, no plane ticket or complicated itinerary needed.

Start the morning outside, grab lunch somewhere local, and finish the day with live music, drinks, or a sweet treat. Whether you’re staying close to Denver or exploring another Front Range favorite, there’s always a full summer day waiting nearby.

A few itineraries worth saving:
Denver: Washington Park, lunch and shopping in Cherry Creek, then a concert at City Park
Fort Collins: Horsetooth Reservoir, lunch in Old Town, then drinks at The Exchange
Colorado Springs: Garden of the Gods, lunch in Old Colorado City, then ice cream downtown

Save this for the next time you’re wondering what to do!

One of the best things about Colorado is how different it can feel depending on where you are.

You can spend the morning in Denver grabbing coffee at Union Station, head to RiNo for murals, breweries, and dinner, then be watching a concert at Red Rocks by the end of the day.

Drive south and you have Garden of the Gods, mountain views, and Colorado Springs. Head north and you get Boulder, Chautauqua, Pearl Street, and all of the smaller towns that make Northern Colorado feel like its own little world.

Then there is Estes Park, where a summer day can turn into Trail Ridge Drive, elk sightings, and a reason to stay longer than planned.

When friends come to visit, it is easy to want to show them everything. The good news is there is no wrong way to do it.

You can build a weekend around hiking, food, live music, small towns, mountain drives, or just taking them to the places that make you love living here in the first place.

A few spots worth putting on the list this summer:
Red Rocks Union Station Garden of the Gods Boulder and Chautauqua Estes Park RiNo

Colorado is not one experience. It is a lot of different places, personalities, and weekends packed into one state.

Buyers start forming an opinion about a home before they ever walk through the front door.
That first impression is not just about whether the landscaping looks nice. It affects how buyers view the rest of the property, how they interpret the home’s condition, and sometimes even how confident they feel about making an offer.

The front yard, entryway, exterior paint, windows, driveway, roofline, and outdoor lighting all help tell a story about how a home has been cared for.
When a property feels clean, maintained, and inviting from the outside, buyers tend to walk in with a more positive mindset. When the exterior feels neglected, they often start looking for problems before they even reach the kitchen.

For sellers, this is one of the easiest places to create value before listing. Fresh mulch, trimmed landscaping, a clean front door, updated house numbers, clear walkways, and simple exterior touch-ups can go a long way.
Great listing photos matter. Strong pricing matters. But curb appeal is what gets buyers emotionally invested before the showing has even started.

If you are thinking about selling this year, let’s talk through the updates that will make the biggest difference for your home.

Small Colorado towns are one of the best parts of living here.

You can spend a Saturday in Golden with coffee in hand and a walk along Clear Creek, head up to Georgetown for history and mountain views, or keep it slower with an afternoon by the lake in Palmer Lake.

Then there are places like Lyons, Manitou Springs, Niwot, and Idaho Springs, each with their own mix of local food, scenery, shops, trails, and the kind of character that makes you want to stay longer than planned.

That is what makes Colorado feel so varied. You can be in the city one day and somewhere completely different the next without needing a full weekend away.

Save this for the next time you want to get out of your usual routine, take a drive, and see a different side of the state.

Patio season is one of those things Colorado takes seriously.

Whether you’re in Denver, Colorado Springs, or Fort Collins, there are so many spots to grab a drink, meet up with friends, or turn a normal afternoon into a very solid excuse to stay out a little longer.

A few patios worth saving:
Denver
Improper City
Forest Room 5
Wonderyard Garden + Table

Colorado Springs
Lumen8 Phantom
Canyon Brewing Company
Uprise Taphouse

Fort Collins
Union Bar & Soda Fountain
Odell Brewing Company
Cafe Vino

There are so many great places across Colorado to sit outside, catch up with friends, and make the most of the warmer months.
