Community is important to Barbara, who has served on numerous non-profit boards in the Vail Valley and is a co-founder of Small Champions, an organization providing opportunities for physically challenged children.

An experienced luxury broker with a proven track record, clients are confident when they choose Barbara that they are partnering with a broker who understands their unique needs as well as the complex mountain resort market.

 

With over 1,075 offices in 81 countries and territories around the world, Barbara believes that the undisputed character of Sotheby’s International Realty® and its dominant position in Colorado’s luxury real estate market is a powerful and compelling force for her clients.
