Loss has a way of changing your perspective.

The last few weeks have been heavy, but today life showed up in the form of a bee swarm in my backyard.

I’ve always wanted a hive of my own, and today I got to capture thousands of bees and give them a new home in a bee box. No stings. No panic. Just awe.

Watching them work together, settle in, and start building something new felt like a reminder I needed. Even after loss, life keeps moving forward. New chapters begin. New homes are built. New communities form.

Today, in the middle of grief, I got to witness something beautiful.

And for the first time in a while, it felt a little bit like hope. 🐝❤️

This is one of those posts I never wanted to write.

At 7:00 this morning, my daddy passed away. And even typing those words doesn’t feel real.

He made the decision to leave on his own terms, with dignity, surrounded by love, and gave all of us an opportunity to hold his hand and tell him how much he mattered. As hard as it was, that was the final gift he gave us.

Today hurts in a way I can’t fully explain. The kind of hurt that sits in your chest and steals your breath. The kind that makes you pick up the phone before remembering you can’t call anymore.

My dad was stubborn, tough, funny, complicated, and deeply loved. He helped shape who I am, and so much of him lives on in me, in my kids, and in the stories we’ll keep telling.

I’m incredibly grateful for the extra time we were given, for every hand squeeze, every conversation, every laugh, and every opportunity to say “I love you” one more time.

It feels strange to share something this personal on social media. Part of me wants to keep it private. Part of me knows so many of you have been praying, checking in, and walking this road with our family. So thank you.

Today, my heart is broken, yet relieved.

my daddy is finally at peace.

Love you forever, Daddy. Until we meet again. 🇺🇸❤️

7am phone call from my dad: “I fell.”

So instead of easing into Memorial Day weekend, it was throw on sunglasses, slam sh*tty gas station coffee, buy $150 in gas, load the walker, and haul my grumpy, ungrateful Veteran father down the hill to the Mather VA before most people even started their day. 😵‍💫🇺🇸

And ya know what? I’m still grateful.

Grateful for a career that allows me to answer those calls without asking permission. Grateful I can afford to show up. Grateful I built a life with flexibility, because caregiving isn’t pretty or convenient… it’s exhausting.

Being the daughter of a Veteran means sometimes you get the pride, and sometimes you get the attitude too. 😂 But at the end of the day, you still show up for your people. Even tired. Even frustrated. Even running purely on caffeine and responsibility. ❤️

Another one SOLD in Placerville ✨

918 Woodpecker is officially closed! Huge congratulations to my sellers as they head off to their next adventure on the East Coast, and welcome home to the buyers relocating from Grass Valley to enjoy everything our little foothill town has to offer.

This one was all about timing, teamwork, and getting two families exactly where they needed to be. That’s the magic of real estate when it’s done right. 🏡

Placerville continues to be the spot people are choosing for lifestyle, community, and a little more breathing room. And honestly… I get it. 😉

Thinking about making a move in or out of El Dorado County? Let’s talk.

Closed on the CUTEST little home in downtown Placerville today and honestly… one of my favorite things is when the contractors are already pulling up at key exchange ready to roll. 😂🔨

No waiting. No wasting time. Just straight into bringing the vision to life. There’s something so exciting about handing over keys knowing this little house is about to get loved on hard.

Fresh chapter. Big plans. Dust flying by 2pm. Exactly how we like it around here. 🏡✨ hats off to Serota Construction for being the best!

Downtown Placerville continues to steal my heart one home at a time. 💞 sold

Today, it’s one of those days.

Being the daughter of a Veteran means growing up proud as hell of your parent’s service… while also quietly witnessing the lifelong cost that service can carry. The sacrifices don’t always end when the uniform comes off. Sometimes they follow home. Sometimes they shape entire families. Sometimes they change the people you love forever.

Today, while helping care for my dad at the VA, I was handed this appreciation token for the time and care I’ve dedicated to him. Such a small gesture… but damn, it made me emotional.

Because caregiving can feel invisible sometimes. Heavy sometimes. Heartbreaking sometimes. And so so tiring. And today, for a second, I felt seen.

I’m proud to be his daughter. Proud of his service. Proud to show up for him now the way he showed up for our country then. 🇺🇸

To all the Veterans carrying burdens most of us will never fully understand — and to the families helping carry them too — I see you. ❤️

Placerville is holding STRONG in 2026 👏🏼

According to local MLS stats, Placerville is currently the #2 city in all of El Dorado County for sales volume this year with 130 homes sold YTD.

Of those 130 sales… I’m proud to say I’ve personally helped close 12 of them already this year. 🤯🏡

That means nearly 1 out of every 10 homes sold in Placerville in 2026 has had my name on it — and honestly, that’s pretty damn cool for a small town girl born and raised right here in El Dorado County.

This market has not been “easy.”
Higher rates.
Nervous buyers.
Insurance conversations.
Tough negotiations.
A lot of agents sitting still.

But opportunity still exists for the people willing to work, communicate, adapt, and show the hell up for their clients every single day.

Grateful for every buyer, seller, referral, late-night phone call, showing request, and coffee meeting that keeps this business moving. ❤️

And we’re just getting started.

If you’re thinking about buying, selling, investing, or just want real talk about what’s happening locally — my phone’s always on.

One year ago today, I walked away from my marriage. 💔

Not because I wanted to fail.
Not because I stopped loving my family.
But because I finally realized that surviving and living are two very different things. My heart, brain and gut don’t always agree on things, but I’m learning to TRUST MY GUT. It’s always right.

This last year has been one of the hardest seasons of my life.
I’ve cried in parking lots between showings. (A LOT!)
Held it together for my kids while falling apart behind closed doors.
Built a business while rebuilding myself.
Learning how to sit alone in the silence after years of chaos. (This is the hardest for me)
Learned that peace feels uncomfortable when you’ve spent too long in survival mode.

There are moments I question everything.
Moments I felt guilty.
Moments I wanted to go backwards simply because it was familiar. I didn’t. And I won’t.

But somewhere along the way… I’m finding myself again, not perfect, but me.

Not the version of me that was constantly trying to fix, save, manage, or carry everyone else.
The version of me that laughs louder. Sleeps better. Breathes deeper. Sets boundaries. Protects her energy. Shows up for her kids. Shows up for herself. Plans for the future.

And the craziest part?
The world didn’t end when I chose me.

In the last year I’ve still sold homes (my best year ever). Still showed up for my clients. Still cheered on my kids at soccer games. Still built community. Still kept going.

Because strength doesn’t always look loud. Trust me, there are times I want to burn everything down 😂🔥
Sometimes it looks like quietly rebuilding your entire life while nobody realizes how hard you’re fighting.

If you’re in a season where life feels heavy… keep going.
You are allowed to outgrow what hurts you.
You are allowed to choose peace.
And you are absolutely allowed to rebuild a life that feels good to wake up to. 🤍
