About Catie
A lifelong Angeleno, her upbringing in Century City and high school years in Mar Vista shaped her early connection to the city. She later attended Tulane University in New Orleans, gaining a broader perspective while staying closely tied to the Los Angeles community she’s always considered home.
She operates from a clear, unwavering belief: respect is granted, not earned. Everyone deserves to be met with a baseline level of dignity. This principle shows up in how she moves through the world: with steadiness, honesty, and a grounded sense of self. She is a consistent character, leading with kindness and authenticity in every setting, without adjusting who she is to fit the room. She lives by the quote, that “people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel” (Maya Angelou).
Bilingual in Spanish and English, she comes from a large, close-knit Los Angeles family, which shaped her understanding of responsibility, presence, and what it means to show up for others. That foundation carries directly into her work and the way she approaches client relationships.
As a DRE-licensed Operations Manager on the Stearns & Associates team, she manages the day-to-day with a steady hand, ensuring each transaction is handled thoughtfully and with precision. Outside of work, she spends time with her dog, Brodie, who keeps life light and grounded.
Catie brings a strong point of view, a steady presence, and a people-first mindset to everything she does, making her an integral part of the Stearns & Associates team.
