The mountains are a special place...that's why we’re here!
Thirty years ago, I took off on a road trip from a dusty beach town in South Jersey with my now-husband Michael. I wasn't sure how it would all end...it turns out it was one of the best decisions I've ever made in my entire life! We ended up in the Colorado Rockies and have been living the dream ever since...right here in Georgetown. I'm a graduate of the University of Northern Colorado and lived in Fort Collins for about 4 years of my time in CO. I also lived in Breckenridge for two years, and I've traveled extensively in Colorado and the West. I truly feel that Georgetown & all of Clear Creek County is one of the very best communities in this amazing state.
As a full-time mom raising my children here in Clear Creek Couny, I came to appreciate all that the mountains have to offer families. The schools, services, views, parks, lake and streams, weather, & people. I truly never wanted to live anywhere else. I always tell newcomers that Georgetown is the best place to live, work, and raise a family. It's 100% true! I worked for Historic Georgetown for over 10 years and loved learning about the history of the Georgetown-Silver Plume National Historic Landmark District. It truly gave me a greater appreciation for the tenacity of this little mountain mining town. And I met a ton of people in my community through the work I did for that non-profit. My husband and I raised our two beautiful children here and feel blessed for clean air and water. My daughter Magdalena, a CSU biology grad, will turn 26 this year and lives in Southern Colorado, working toward a law degree. My son Joseph will turn 22 this year and is a true mountain kid, following in his dad's footsteps as an avid fisherman, skier, hockey player, and all-around outdoor enthusiast. His kind and thoughtful nature makes us so proud! He is working toward his real estate license and works for this family business: I’m grateful every day for his knowledge in this field and his hard working nature. Our Golden Retriever Rosie rounds-out our family: she loves long-ish walks, homemade dog food, and any human or other animal who want to hang out. This mountain town has taught us all a lot about life, happiness, love, and freedom. In my free-time, I relish the opportunities spent in solitude in my garden. I am also a mountain beekeeper and chicken-keeper (is that a thing?) and love to spend quiet time with my buzzing and squawking pets, and of course Rosie, too. I basically try to live a simple mountain life, taking as little as I can from the earth while trying to give back as much as I can to the future sustainability of our planet.
For the last 16 years, I've worked in Real Estate and Property Management in Clear Creek County. My community has dramatically grown since we first landed here 26 years ago, and I love helping people find a place to call 'HOME', whether that's a rental property or a purchase. It brings me such fulfillment to help other people realize their mountain dreams! A while ago, I went Indie and opened my own boutique real estate brokerage in Georgetown: Two Rivers Real Estate. It was the best decision I could have made for my career. I've begun building a strong property management component to my company including short-term vacation rental management, long-term management, & Community Association Management (HOA management), and I look forward to welcoming new residents & visitors to Clear Creek County. I hope to lend my local real estate knowledge and experience, all with a smile, to YOU once you decide to move to the mountains. What are you waiting for??
