MEET

Hey there, sunshine! I’m Mary, and I’m so glad you’ve found your way to my little corner of the internet.

FROM MIDWEST

TO WEST COAST

You might know me as the smiling face from Selling Sunset, but my story starts far from the glitz and glamor of LA. I’m a small-town girl from Indiana who dreamed big and never stopped reaching for the stars – even when life threw me some major curveballs.

At 16, I became a mom to my incredible son, Austin. Talk about a plot twist! But that unexpected turn led me down a path of resilience, determination, and a whole lot of hustle. From juggling motherhood with three jobs to navigating the competitive world of luxury real estate, I’ve learned that with grit and grace, anything is possible.

BUILDING MY

SUNSHINE EMPIRE

Today, I’m living a life beyond my wildest dreams. As Vice President at The Oppenheim Group, I’ve sold over $140 million in real estate. But more than the sales figures, I’m proud of the relationships I’ve built and the trust I’ve earned in this crazy, beautiful industry.

And let’s not forget about love! After kissing a few frogs (okay, maybe more than a few), I found my prince charming in my husband, Romain.

Together with our furry babies, we’re creating our own happily ever after – one sunny day at a time.
