Why I Focus on Helping Families Like Yours

This work became personal long before it became a business move. My own family has faced the same questions many of yours are asking — especially the heavy one: “what do we do with the house?”

I became a real estate agent in 2019

  • because I love helping people”

  • “treat every client like I would treat my own family.”

  • “it’s my passion helping people’s real estate goals”

ONE PROBLEM

Every agent says this and buyers and sellers are tired of hearing it!

I needed a change in my business strategy to align with a more personal passion

“You’ve certainly got an Old Soul”

I’ve been told that for most of my life.

Even as a kid, I felt more at ease around older generations. When I was 11, I started mowing my grandfather’s lawn. Before long, I was mowing the lawns of several of his friends, too. I sold newspapers after church — most of my customers were senior citizens. In school, I connected more naturally with teachers than classmates.

I’ve always found comfort in connecting with people who have lived a full life and have the stories to share about it.

When I moved to Denver, that pattern didn’t change. I called one of my four grandparents every day and spoke to my grandfather every morning. He was the best man at my wedding — not because it sounded nice, but because he truly was my best friend.

Life Changed

Over the last five years, I’ve lost all four of my grandparents.

Three of them were diagnosed with memory-related illnesses that eventually made it unsafe for them to live alone. From a distance, I watched my parents wrestle with the same question so many families eventually face:

The question was a loaded one because it effected them:

  • Financially.

  • Emotionally.

  • Logistically.

  • Practically.

These weren’t just buildings; they were decades of memories of lives well-lived

I saw how heavy those decisions can feel — especially when you’re trying to honor someone you love while also protecting their safety. But I was 1,000 miles away!

Then It Happened Closer to Home

In early 2025, my father-in-law was diagnosed with dementia.

He moved into assisted living somewhat suddenly. Within six weeks, it became clear he needed memory care.

Finding him a safe place to live was manageable; sorting through his home was overwhelming. Every decision felt emotional

That’s When It Became Clear: I could align my personality and passion with my business

These experiences changed how I see my work. It’s more than just selling houses.

It’s about helping families navigate one of the most emotionally complicated seasons of life.

It’s about:

• Protecting dignity
• Protecting safety
• Protecting family relationships
• Making thoughtful decisions before urgency takes over

Why I Focus on This Work

There are many talented real estate agents in Denver. Very few focus specifically on helping families navigate what happens when a parent’s home no longer fits their life.

  • This work requires patience.

  • It requires listening.

  • It requires understanding that sometimes the right next step isn’t selling yet.

Sometimes the right step is simply a conversation.

My role is to help families move forward calmly, clearly, and without pressure — at the pace that feels right for them.

If You Are Here…

You’re likely trying to do what’s best for someone you love.

  • Maybe nothing needs to change today.

  • Maybe you’re just starting to notice signs.

  • Maybe you’re feeling that quiet sense that it’s time to think ahead.

You don’t have to make a decision right now. You just need the right place to start.

Most families don’t call because they’re ready to sell. They call because they’re unsure what to do.

Start With Clarity

If you’re unsure whether the home is still supporting your loved one’s life — or quietly working against it — the best first step is awareness.

The Move vs. Stay Quiz was created for families in exactly this situation.

It takes just a few minutes and offers calm, thoughtful guidance.
