Marybeth Emerson

She believes in love at first “site” – she fell hard and fast for this beautiful little town on her first visit here during college. It was an impromptu trip at the end of an enchanting summer working at a lodge in Aspen. Her roommate encouraged her to meet some of her friends in Boulder before heading home to begin college at Emory University in Atlanta. One of them took her for a tour one afternoon that found them driving northbound along 75th in a VW Rabbit convertible with the top down. She was amazed by the beauty she saw when she gazed back at the silhouette of the mountains against that blue and gold “Broncos” sky. She fell in love right then and swore she’d return to Boulder to live one day. She did that a few years later when she returned to get her MBA at CU. She’s living her dream every day, and she often tells her friends that no matter how bad a day she may be having, all she has to do is look out the window of her home on Mapleton Hill, see the Flatirons, and it all seems to fall into perspective. Life is good here! As an art collector, she feels like Boulder is the background to the canvas of her life. All the experiences and people she’s met over the years add the color, texture, and layers that make her so happy. Boulder rocks, and her passion for this town has only grown stronger over the years. She brings her passion for Boulder and optimistic attitude for life to her work in real estate.

She also has a BA in Interior Design and is involved in luxury development projects ranging from modern new homes to classic historic restorations. Her design background honed her meticulous attention to detail, making her work stand out. She knows this town backward and forwards and looks forward to turning over every stone she can to help you buy or sell your home. Oh, and when it comes to the multiple-offer environment that so many Buyers get frustrated with, her Buyers succeed! You’ll discover why when you work with her and get to know her! She’s a serial entrepreneur and has built successful businesses in the computer and sports accessories industries. Her claim to fame was having Helmet Headz showcased on the Today Show and featured on Pop-Tart boxes with a Shrek and Donkey helmet cover promotion when the Shrek III movie was released! She enjoys art collecting, cooking, skiing/snowboarding, traveling to exotic destinations like Africa, and just hanging out at home with good friends. She’s excited to get back into sailing after “dabbling” years ago and picking up golf again. She is divorced and has one amazing daughter Elise, who lives in Boston and just became a first-time home-buyer herself!
