About Reese

Hey! Want to get to know me better?

A California native, born in Long Beach and raised in Orange County, I started artistic roller skating as soon as I could walk and became a professional at the age of 16. Through skating, I learned about hard work, tenacity, commitment, teamwork, and sacrifice—practicing up to 7 hours a day while going to school.

While teaching skating, I also attended college and worked several part-time jobs, including in the restaurant industry. I have always loved real estate investing through flipping and/or holding properties, so I attended Interior Designers Institute in Newport Beach to learn more about making homes look and sell better.

I received my degree in 1991 and started investing in real estate shortly after. I got married in 1995, and together with my husband, we flipped homes, held rental properties, and grew several other businesses. In 2000, we started a vending business in Orange, Los Angeles, San Bernardino, and Riverside Counties, eventually growing to 800+ machines on location.

After our divorce in 2015, he kept the business, so I took that time for self-reflection and traveled to several countries over the next 5 years. I spent summers living on a sailboat in Maine and winters in Mexico while learning and studying online marketing.

During this time, my mother started needing more help, so my mom, sister, and I searched for a community that would be both safe and fun to live in—and that’s when we found Canyon Lake.

Once we settled into Canyon Lake, I knew I needed to start something new since my husband had taken over the business we built together for 15 years. After a lot of soul-searching, I decided it was time to get my real estate license and become a Realtor.

I dedicated myself to mastering the art and science of buying and selling homes at the best price possible. In the beginning, I started by hosting open houses, learning all of the new contracts, and spending time in the office learning from other agents and how they ran their businesses.

All of my years of experience flipping homes and learning advanced marketing strategies helped me hit the ground running. I earned Rookie of the Year in my first year, am now in the top 10 in my office, and earned my Certificate for Coldwell Banker Global Luxury Specialist.

I love finding the perfect home for my clients and handing them the keys. Seeing their excitement and knowing I played a part in it is an incredible feeling. It’s equally fulfilling when I list a client’s home, create momentum, and secure several offers for them.

That’s what drives me to stay updated with market trends, new technologies, and evolving practices so I can serve my clients at the highest level.

Today, I’m grateful to live, work, and play in this beautiful community while helping homeowners throughout Southwest Riverside County seamlessly move from one home to the next.
