Real Estate Essentials

Founder of Responders Real Estate LLC and Branch Broker at Real Estate Essentials in Ogden, Utah. I’ve been helping people buy, sell, and invest in real estate across Utah since 2006—but my journey started even earlier when I was flipping homes after relocating from Southern California in 2002. Back then, I was frustrated with the service I was receiving from agents. So I got my license—initially for myself—and quickly realized I had found my calling. I haven’t looked back since. A Passion for Helping Local Heroes As the proud wife of a firefighter and U.S. Marine veteran, I have a deep commitment to serving those who serve our communities. My heart is with our local heroes: first responders, military members, teachers, and healthcare professionals. It’s an honor to help them and their families with one of life’s biggest milestones. My Specialty & Style I work with a wide range of clients, from seasoned investors and commercial buyers to first-time homebuyers, downsizing sellers, and luxury home clients. I bring hands-on, full-service attention to every transaction, and I handle all my own negotiations—my clients are never handed off. I dig deep into my clients’ needs and guide them through every option and every step. I also connect them with trusted vendors I’ve worked with for years, from lenders and inspectors to designers and handymen. When you’re working with me, you’re in good hands. A Life Lived in Real Estate I’m not just a broker—I’ve lived the life stages that lead people to real estate. I’ve raised kids, relocated across state lines, gone through divorce and remarriage, downsized, blended families, built dream homes, and owned investment properties. I’ve done it all—and that’s exactly what helps me connect with my clients in such a meaningful way. I’ve been honored with the Rookie of the Year award, earned multiple Top 500 designations (out of over 16,000 Utah agents), and consistently rank as a top producer within my brokerage. I’m also proud to be a regular face on ABC4’s Real Estate Essentials and have been featured in Utah Business Magazine and on multiple radio stations statewide for my business acumen and marketing expertise. Beyond the Business I was born and raised in Southern California and now call North Ogden home. My kids are now young adults (my greatest accomplishments), and My husband and I Share our home with two lovable Australian Shepherds. I’m a certified interior designer, a passionate gardener, and currently turning my yard into a cottage-style oasis filled with nearly every plant that can grow in Utah. When I’m not working or planting something new, you’ll find me outdoors—especially near water. I love boating, warm weather, and traveling the world. My passport is full, but a few favorites include French Polynesia, Bali, and Venice. My Motto “The more I help others succeed, the more I succeed.” – Ray Kroc And I believe in the power of positivity, manifestation, and making real connections. My clients become lifel
