About Me

For more than 13 years, I’ve had the privilege of helping people across Ottawa move into new chapters — from first-time buyers stepping into the market with excitement, to families selling a well-loved home filled with memories, to downsizers looking for a fresh start that fits their lifestyle. Every client, every story, and every transition matters deeply to me.

With trusted guidance, deep knowledge of the Ottawa market, and a personalized approach tailored to your needs, I’m here to help you navigate each step with confidence. Whether it’s preparing your home for sale, understanding neighbourhood trends, or finding a space that truly feels like “you,” I walk you through the process with care, communication, and a strategy built around your goals.

My commitment is simple: to make your move seamless, successful, and grounded in support you can feel. When you work with me, you’re not just getting a realtor — you’re getting a partner who’s genuinely invested in your next chapter.

Let’s make your move a story you’re excited to tell.

VERY patient, friendly, and knowledgeable!

Shelley was very warm and approachable, right from the beginning and always made herself available to answer any of my questions and offer tips of her own. She provided me with honest advice and I never felt pressured any step of the way. It was very reassuring, like having a trusted family friend in my corner supporting me and she never pushed or made me step beyond my means (helping me with what felt like a very daunting process before I started working with her). She also provided me with trusted referrals to all of the auxiliary services I was looking for along the way (e.g. lawyer, home inspector, handyman) to make the process as smooth and seamless as possible. I highly recommend her to anyone and would not hesitate to work with her again for my next home sale or purchase!

Made the purchase of our first home an unforgettable experience

Wow Shelley! We are absolutely blown away. When Allie and I first thought about buying a house, we never expected the process to be this easy, stress free and fun! You really made the purchase of our first home an unforgettable experience. Your expertise with every aspect was something that kept us calm when little problems popped up. You have a lot of heart and we want to thank you SO much for taking such good care of our family.

Made us really glad that we had hired her

Shelley helped us to determine the value of our home, the best time to sell and what improvements or changes were required to obtain the best price for our home. She also helped us to narrow down our options for a new home and buy the one that was exactly right for our needs at this time (and for the next 20 years, we hope!). She provided us with the services of a “stager”, and she helped us to find contractors to get the job done. Shelley tirelessly trekked around Stittsville, Kanata and even Richmond to help us find our next home. Shelley was able to calmly direct our negotiations with both the purchaser of our old home, and the vendor of our new home, even when we felt that timelines and prices were not going to work out.  I don’t know if this was different from other agents, but it made us really glad that we had hired her.

She is the best recommendation I have ever received

 Shelley is the best recommendation I have ever received. Her high professionalism and customer concern made selling my property a pleasurable experience devoid of stress and aggravations. I highly recommend her.

I was blown away by the service Shelley provided!

Not only does she walk through everything with you, but she does it all with excellence with the best of her abilities. On buying our first home, Shelley referred us all of the right people (Insurance, Mortgage broker, home inspector and lawyer) and truly collaborated with them all in order to get the best for us! She also makes sure to take all of the right notes during the home inspection and the showings to really make sure she meets your needs! When it comes to negotiating, she got us the house we wanted for the price we wanted and in the state we wanted it. :) Highly recommend!

Kindness was a gift

Shelley’s kindness, follow-ups and not once leaving me to feel on my own through the selling and purchasing process was a gift received in abundance.
