About Ellen

Why on earth would someone give up a perfectly good career as a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional after years of training and study and grueling certification exams in order to sell real estate? Because I absolutely LOVE it! I had the privilege of working with clients to help them achieve their financial goals for nearly 15 years prior to becoming a real estate agent. One thing I consistently noticed is that housing issues are often one of the biggest financial concerns, especially for millennials.

I'm thrilled to be able to use my expertise in financial planning to help my first-time buyers navigate the journey from renting to owning a home. Plus, I’m obsessed with home remodeling and decor - I could spend hours poring over paint chips or wandering through furniture stores and I’m also pretty handy with a nail gun!

I grew up in Louisiana and moved to Waco to attend Baylor University. I’ve got a great sign in my office that a friend had made for me that says “Home is on both sides of the river” and it’s so true! I love Texas as if I were a native, but I also love making regular trips to Louisiana to indulge in some good old Cajun food! After graduating from Baylor, I worked as a local television news anchor.

You may remember me as Ellen Bordelon on the KWTX-TV morning show! Although I only spent three short years in the news business, the experience allowed me to get to know the Central Texas area and its residents very well. I'm married to John, a successful REALTOR® and the best business partner I could ask for. We have two rescued miniature schnauzers: Truman and Georgiy.

When I'm not working or at home with the dogs, you can find me volunteering in the community or cruising Lake Waco on my sailboat!
