I left the beaches of Captiva Island, Florida behind in 2003 to pursue the Colorado mountain lifestyle, and I never looked back. After spending time in Vail, Beaver Creek, and Telluride, I settled in Aspen, and it's been home ever since.
Before real estate, I worked in luxury hotel sales and later served as Regional Vice President at Stewart Title. Those careers gave me a skill set I use every single day: advanced negotiation, creative problem-solving, and an exceptional level of attention to detail. My title company background is particularly valuable. I understand the closing process from the inside out, which means I can identify potential pitfalls before they occur and find solutions to keep things moving smoothly.
I co-founded SSC & Company with my husband Simon, and together we specialize in residential real estate, one-of-a-kind homes, development projects, and ranches throughout the Roaring Fork Valley. Our approach is grounded in one principle: putting our clients' interests before our own. Every transaction is different, every client is different, but the standard never changes. I like to win for my clients, and I do it with integrity.
I bring a deep understanding of the Aspen market, from seasonal demand patterns and neighborhood-specific opportunities to the lifestyle details that matter when someone is choosing where to live in the valley. Over 20 years of living here means I'm not just studying the market. I'm living in it.
Outside of real estate, Simon and I are proud parents of two, Sydney and Lachlan, and we spend our time off as a family. You'll find us skiing in the winter and cycling or paddleboarding in the summer, always with our dogs Murry and Benny in tow. I'm also a committed supporter of the Lucky Day Animal Rescue and the Aspen Homeless Shelter.
If your client is headed to the Roaring Fork Valley and needs an agent who combines luxury market expertise with genuine care and a title-company-level understanding of the closing process, I'd love to be the person you send them to.
"Their team is professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely dedicated to helping clients achieve their real estate goals. Communication was clear, timely, and personalized, making the process smooth and stress-free."
"Susan worked non-stop to help us get a great deal and was incredibly attentive to all our needs and requests. She's a true professional who goes above and beyond. Her dedication, responsiveness, and work ethic really stood out."
"Susan's command of the details enabled her to identify pitfalls before they occurred and find solutions to keep the process moving smoothly. We felt she protected our best interest from the initial offer to final close. Her history working for a title company was invaluable."
When you send a client my way, they're getting someone who has spent over 20 years in the Aspen market and brings a background in luxury hospitality and title insurance to every deal. I'll keep you informed, protect your client's interests from the initial offer to the final close, and make sure the experience reflects well on the trust you've placed in me.
I'm responsive, thorough, and proactive. My clients describe my communication as clear, timely, and personalized. I keep referring agents in the loop at every meaningful milestone, and I don't wait to be asked. You'll always know where things stand.
