Shelly was born and raised in Nutrioso, a very small town, located in the White Mountains of Arizona. She grew up exploring the mountains, riding horses, and playing in a creek down the road from her house. When she was 11 years old she landed her very first job working for her grandpa, herding his cattle off the highway every night and into the barn. Earning 25 cents per day thus began her love of hard work and her drive for success. After working different jobs and raising her 4 children, her passion for architecture and interior design lead her to obtaining her dream of becoming a realtor. She loves meeting new people and helping them find their perfect home.
