Rooted in Care. Connected by Heart.

The Highlands Ranch Community is a premier community situated in Southwest Las Vegas, proudly serving the 89141 area of Southern Highlands. Our neighborhood is much more than a collection of homes—it’s a vibrant, connected network where clear communication and community visibility shape the quality of daily life.

The Highlands Ranch community encompasses the area roughly between Blue Diamond Road and Cactus Avenue, and Jones Boulevard to Decatur Boulevard. We also serve nearby residents, prospective homeowners, and community partners throughout the greater Southern Nevada region.

Our mission statement is simple: “Clear communication. Responsible planning. Real, visible progress.”

I believe communities, businesses, and relationships thrive when people feel connected, informed, and valued.

For more than a decade, I’ve had the opportunity to work with people from all walks of life, helping them navigate important decisions, build meaningful connections, and find the resources they need to move forward. Whether I’m assisting a family with a real estate transaction, helping a business find the right location for its next chapter, leading community initiatives, developing educational programs, or organizing events that bring people together, my goal has always been the same: to leave things better than I found them.

As a proud Cuban-American, entrepreneur, REALTOR®, community leader, and founder of JS Legacy Builders Foundation, I am passionate about serving others and creating opportunities for people to connect, learn, and grow. I believe leadership should be visible, approachable, and rooted in a genuine desire to help others.

Beyond my professional roles, I am a proud mother of three and a passionate advocate for greater awareness, inclusion, and support for individuals and families navigating autism, a cause that is especially close to my heart.
When I’m not working on community projects, you’ll likely find me exploring a new creative hobby, working on a DIY project, making candles, planning my next event, or embracing my newest adventure—roller skating.

At the heart of everything I do is a simple belief: people matter, and even the smallest effort can make a meaningful difference.
