I first came out to northern NM in 1979 to attend St. John’s College in Santa Fe.  While a unique and exemplary higher education introduced me to NM, it was this land itself, with its stark, bright light, and dramatic landscapes, the rich culture of its people and the many friendships that I made here that kept me coming back. 

After a 13-year career working for a number of SF Bay Area retail companies (The Nature Company, The North Face, Illuminations, Restoration Hardware), in operations, human resources and real estate/construction, including managing several multi-store roll outs, I returned to northern NM 6 years ago to set down roots, invest in real estate and to make Taos home. 

Here in Taos I have relished becoming a part of a community that is diverse, creative and serious.  There is nothing like involvement in the life and institutions of a community to build relationships and educate one about how it all works.  My own interests and those of my step children have been my guide and so I am a part of the Taos Soccer Coalition, a couple of Acequias in the Taos Valley, the Friends of Anansi Charter School, the Board of the Taos Ski Team and Intermezzo of the Santa Fe Opera.  In addition I serve on the Board of Visitors and Governors of St. John’s College which had campuses in both Santa Fe, NM and Annapolis, MD. 

My belief in the inherent long term value of real estate in northern NM has led me to study it and to invest in it myself and I hope my experience will prove helpful to you as you explore this beautiful land.
