“I live for family, meaningful connections, and building relationships. I’m passionate about interior design, new developments, women who kick ass, entrepreneurship, constant growth and anything that exudes impeccable taste. Though I’m a Colorado girl at heart, the ocean runs through my soul — I’ll always choose the beach. I’m an avid traveler who thrives on new experiences, and at the center of my world is my deep love for my two daughters.”
