Karen considers herself more of a guide than a salesperson because she loves the Aspen area and the lifestyle she discovered here almost 30 years ago when she moved to the area from her hometown on Cape Cod. “It’s not hard to sell something you’re passionate about. I know when I sell a property, it’s not just a house or even a home, but a lifestyle … it’s that special quality this valley has that not only drew us here but kept us here.”
