A fearless advocate and Denver neighborhood expert, Kristen provides incomparable insight and guidance that allows her sellers to get top-dollar and her buyers to successfully acquire the homes of their dreams.

Kristen is consistently ranked in the Top 100 Agents in the Denver marketplace, is a DMAR Roundtable award winner 9 years running and received the RE/MAX Lifetime Achievement award in 2018.

In addition to buying and selling residential real estate Kristen’s passion is design and renovation. She and her husband have completed several high end renovations in the West Wash Park, East Wash Park, Platt Park, and Wellshire neighborhoods over the past 15 years. As a result, Kristen has a robust knowledge of all things remodel, new construction, pop tops, additions, and ADU’s...all of which makes her an amazing resource to her clients. In 2019, Kristen and her husband completed their first spec home in the Cory Merrill neighborhood.  

An Oklahoma native, Kristen graduated from the University of Kansas and placed roots in Denver in 2006. With her husband and two children by her side, Kristen can often be found playing tennis at Wash Park, biking with her family in Platt Park, skiing Vail on the weekends or dedicating what remains of her free time to bettering her community through volunteerism with Compass Cares Classic Golf and Tennis Charity Event (2021 and 2022), Habitat for Humanity, Children's Museum Birthday Bash (2018-2022) and Restoration Community Church (2015-2022).
