That love for family and lifestyle carries into her work, helping her understand what truly matters when choosing a place to call home.

From the sense of community to the natural beauty of the area, he understands firsthand what makes living here so special—and he’s passionate about helping others find that same connection to the region.
If Damien looks familiar, it’s because from 2023 to 2025 he served the Town of Pinetop-Lakeside as the Collection Center Supervisor. In this role, he gained a strong understanding of how a rural town operates, the unique obstacles they face, and built strong local relationships throughout the community. That firsthand experience—combined with his local knowledge and commitment to service—gives Damien a unique perspective and added value for clients looking to buy or sell in the White Mountains.
Known for being extremely hardworking, outgoing, and highly approachable, Damien builds strong relationships through clear communication, integrity, and genuine care for his clients’ goals. Whether assisting first-time buyers, seasoned homeowners, or investors, he brings energy, dedication, and trusted support to every transaction. Damien’s growing leadership within the team, combined with the experience and mentorship of Bev and Hannah, ensures clients receive both personalized service and proven expertise—every step of the way.
