About Me

In Utah, where I work as a REALTOR®, water is a particularly scarce and valuable resource. Because water rights are legally considered real property—bought and sold much like real estate—this can lead to significant confusion and stress during transactions. Early in my career, I realized just how many people struggle to navigate water rights transactions—and I knew I wanted to help. After investing hundreds of hours studying Utah water law and transactions, I developed a specialized course to help other REALTORS® understand this complex field. Today, more than 1,000 Utah REALTORS® have taken the class and are using the tools I created to better serve their clients. When buying or selling a Utah water right, working with the right real estate agent means having someone with deep market expertise—someone who can guide you clearly through every step of the process. There’s nothing more rewarding to me than helping clients successfully navigate water rights transactions. You can count on me for thorough research, meticulous attention to detail, and a steadfast commitment to your best interests. I take great pride in being honest, trustworthy, and highly knowledgeable in the water rights real estate market. I understand how critical it is to work with someone you can truly rely on.

Whether you’re experienced with Utah water rights or navigating them for the first time, I can help you find the right fit—at the right price, in the right location, for the right use. When you’re ready to buy or sell, I’d be honored to guide you through this important process. Don’t hesitate to reach out to learn more about how I can help.
