About Leslie

A different kind of real estate experience.

Buying or selling a home is one of the most meaningful decisions you will ever make. I grew up watching my parents build homes and dreams in Minnesota, and that understanding has shaped everything I do. A home is where life happens.

With 25 years of professional marketing experience behind every decision, I bring something most agents simply don't have: a sharp, strategic approach paired with genuine care for the people I serve.

What I Do

Expertise that converts.

Whether you're buying a new build, finding the right 55+ community, or selling your most important asset, I bring strategy, knowledge, and real dedication to every step.

New Construction Specialist

The builder has a team.
So should you.

When you walk into a model home, you're meeting the builder's agent. Not yours. I represent you exclusively, at no extra cost, with 25 years of marketing strategy behind every decision.

✓
I negotiate upgrades, lot premiums, and closing costs. Builders have flexibility they rarely volunteer.
✓
I review your contract before you sign. Builder contracts are written to protect the builder.
✓
I attend the design center with you and help prioritize upgrades that add real resale value.
✓
On new builds, the builder typically pays my commission, so my services usually cost you nothing.
Touring a model home? Call or text me before your first visit. Most builders require your agent to be registered on that first visit, and if you go alone, many won't let you add an agent later. Call or text 623.229.5539.

Why Work With Me

I've sat on the other side of the table.

Builder-side insight

For 15 years I marketed commercial real estate and mixed-use developments, including seven years as VP of Marketing and Communications at CityNorth. I know how developers position, package and market a project, and I use that perspective for you, not them.

Marketing that moves homes

Selling? Your home gets the same strategic positioning I have built for major destinations: professional photography, sharp messaging, and a real launch plan, not just an MLS entry.

A small roster, by design

I keep my client list intentionally small, so you work with me directly. Fast answers, clear communication, and no hand-offs from the first conversation to closing day.

The Arizona Lifestyle

The desert looks good on you.

Golf courses, resort pools, hiking trails, and 300 days of sunshine. Greater Phoenix offers an extraordinary quality of life — and the right home makes all the difference.
