CENTURY 21 Hacienda Realty

Since moving to Silver City in 2004, I’ve come to appreciate everything that makes this community special—from its strong sense of connection to the beautiful outdoor spaces that surround us. I raised my kids here, and I love spending time trail running, cooking with my wife, and hanging out with our three dogs and two cats. Before transitioning into real estate, I ran a community-based nonprofit focused on promoting positive youth development and strengthening other nonprofits through capacity building. This experience reinforced my passion for helping people and problem-solving—both of which I bring to my work in real estate. I have nine years of experience in Grant County’s real estate market and serve as the Brokerage Manager, overseeing a team of 12 brokers. This role gives me a unique perspective on the many complexities of real estate transactions. By keeping my personal group of clients small, I ensure that each person I work with receives my full attention and benefits from my deep knowledge of the market. My approach is rooted in preparation, anticipation, and information—empowering my clients to make confident, well-informed decisions. Beyond real estate, I stay engaged in the community in many ways. Since 2021, I’ve been a volunteer DJ at KURU, first producing a spoken word radio hour and now hosting a freeform music program on Tuesday nights. I’m also studying yoga and working toward my certification as a Yoga Teacher. And when I’m not on the trails or in the studio, I enjoy home brewing—experimenting with different flavors and techniques to create something unique. If you’re looking to buy or sell in Silver City, I’d love to help guide you through the process with insight, expertise, and a commitment to your best interests.
