About

Hi! I’m Lara, your dedicated realtor with a knack for making things happen.

Real estate is my passion
(and yes, a little bit of an obsession)

ONCE UPON A TIME

My journey into real estate began with a simple spark: the desire to serve people and create exceptional experiences.

I saw Len T Wong on a bus bench. I thought to myself, “I want to serve Calgary like him. Maybe even have my own bus bench someday.” That dream didn’t take long to ignite after I found myself packaged by a big corporation, despite being in the top 1% of sales nationwide.

With 15 years of experience in sales and customer service, I’ve learned what it means to truly serve.

Yet, in the corporate world, I was just a number. That’s why I shifted gears to real estate. Growing up in Manila, playing Monopoly didn’t just teach me about property; it sparked my love for real estate’s terms like rent, mortgage, buying, selling, and everything in between.

Real estate isn’t new to me, it’s personal. I bring a strategic, outside-the-box approach to marketing, pricing, and staging your property to get top dollar. My Type A personality means I get things done fast. Whether it’s answering your call or text promptly, marketing your property fiercely, or making strategic improvements.

One of my strong suits? I love renovating and making homes beautiful. Over the years, I’ve built strong connections with tradespeople and suppliers, so whether it’s a quick fix or a stylish transformation, I know exactly who to call to bring out your home’s best.

Beyond real estate, I’m a high-maintenance wife, an uber-mom to two amazing kids, a generous daughter and sister, and a loyal friend. I bring that same energy, dedication, and care into helping you find your dream home or sell with confidence.

What started as a simple dream is now a reality after years of hard work! I have my own bus bench in Calgary now. Who knows, maybe one day I get to inspire someone, too...

MY REALLY OFFICIAL BIO, the TL:DR VERSION

Lara is a realtor, renovator-at-heart, wife, and uber-mom. I love staging and renovating homes, and I’ve got the best trades and suppliers in my corner to help along the way. Real estate is serious business, but with me, it always comes with a spark.
