Meet the Team

Growing up in Long Beach, California, Shelley always knew she would one day live in the mountains of Colorado. In 1977, she and her husband Jerry made that dream a reality, moving to Steamboat Springs after attending UC Santa Barbara.

After owning and operating the popular Mattie Silks restaurant for 22 years, Shelley transitioned into real estate and development. She joined Colorado Group Realty in 2000, became an owner in 2003, and now serves as Managing Broker. She has earned multiple honors, including Broker of the Year (2008, 2011,2018 and 2024), and brings over 40 years of local knowledge to her clients.

Shelley specializes in helping buyers and sellers navigate the Steamboat market with confidence—from finding the right property to negotiating and closing. Her background in development provides valuable insight into property value and potential.

A longtime local, Shelley raised her three children in Steamboat and remains deeply involved in the community. Today, she partners with her son as part of “The Stanford Team.”

Shelley loves the Steamboat lifestyle—especially summers on the water, hiking, gardening, and time with family. She is proud to call the Yampa Valley home and is committed to delivering professional, knowledgeable, and personalized service to every client.

Testimonials

"We recommend this agent because she is exceptional! We are very busy people so it was difficult for us to spend a lot of time searching which caused us to take a really long time looking. The main reason we went with Shelley as our agent is because through the course of this time she continued to send information on new listings regularly which enabled us to view online at our convenience. We feel fortunate that we chose her. When we were finally available to go look at homes in person Shelley had a variety of homes for us to view. The list of homes she chose for us to look at were exactly what we were looking for. Shelley was very knowledgeable about the area and each home. She had our best interest at heart and worked very hard at providing us with information about each home that we didn't even know was relevant at the time. Needless to say, we found the perfect home and Love everything about it as well as finding a new agent and friend."

"Shelley has done so much more than list, advertise and market my home for sale. She has purchased draperies and other accessories that have helped stage the house. She has spent her own time moving furniture and removing much of the clutter throughout my house that has made it much more presentable. She has gone way above and beyond!"

"Shelley is a fabulous realtor! She is very knowledgeable about the Steamboat area and listens well to her clients. Because we were looking from out of state, we had to make the most of our time while in Steamboat. We were lucky that Shelley was very organized and she always had lots of properties for us to see. Shelley has a great store of energy and graciously spent days driving us around. We learned a lot from her while truly enjoying what could have been a stressful experience. Every step of the process went smoothly because of her real estate know-how. If she didn't have the information at hand, she researched the area and got back to us quickly. Shelley is a real asset to Colorado Group Realty."
