About Me

A Colorado native, I grew up in Littleton, graduated from CU Boulder, and have called Denver home for many years. My roots here run deep, and I bring that local insight to every client relationship.

My path to real estate began after a career traveling with Up with People and working as a flight attendant for Frontier and United Airlines. When an injury shifted my journey, I discovered how meaningful it is to help people find a place where life happens.

I love working with first-time buyers and guiding sellers through staging and preparing their homes to shine. For me, real estate is about more than transactions — it’s about people, lifestyle, and connection.

I’m deeply involved in the Denver community through the Junior League, the Pinehurst Foundation, and Up with People, and I strive to always give more than I take.

I share life with my husband, Tom Valdez, and our cat, Stache — and I’m grateful every day for the relationships this work allows me to build.
