  • Nina has moved often throughout her life and knows how to quickly and cheaply make a house feel like a home.
  • She owns a century-old house and is constantly making upgrades and fixes.
  • In the summers, Nina works outside on your garden and yard, creating a suburban oasis.

Experience

Nina spent most of her childhood moving from house to house, even relocating from Florida to Colorado when she was 10. During those years, she and her mother worked together to make each house feel personal and adjust to their needs, even when renting properties. She now owns a house on a hill built over a century ago and is learning the headaches and ingenious repairs that come with the property.

Education

Nina went to college at Colorado State University, where she earned a degree in fish, wildlife, and conservation biology. Deciding that wasn't enough education for her, she also minored in global environmental sustainability.
