“I live for family and relationships! I am passionate about interior design, new development, women who kick ass, entrepreneurship, and anything that embodies impeccable taste. I am a Colorado girl to the core and love to travel. My 2 little snuggle bug girls keep me on my toes which explains my other passion – wine!”

“I value time with family and friends! My adorable little 7-year-old nephew makes family time even better. I also love to stay active and experience the outdoors: running, hiking, and biking, etc. As a music fan, you can find me at intimate venue concerts around Colorado, particularly Red Rocks. I’m always discovering new passions, my most recent being yard work. I find it to be super therapeutic.”
After work you will find me:
Drinking coffee, choosing what workout to do, and what house chores I can get done! I’m not good about relaxing.
Beach or mountains?
Living in Colorado is amazing with all the beautiful mountains, but recently going to the beach I’m reminded of the peacefulness, being able to relax and completely zone out. Definitely miss the water!
As a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up:
When I was 5, I was pretty sure I'd be a Professional Basketball Player when I grew up. I love sports – both watching and playing! I say I’m not competitive, but I like to win 🙂

Doing anything outside! Drinking wine on a patio with my friends or hiking in the mountains…I’ll take either one.
Beach or mountains?
This is tough because I love being in the mountains, but I’d have to say beach!
