Our Team

Lorie Somermeyer
Owner

Lorie Somermeyer is inhabited by multiple personalities. As a real estate broker, entrepreneur, business strategist, world traveler, and mom, she combines real-world business experience with creative problem solving (what else would you expect from someone who single-handedly raised 3 kids while running a full-time business?). She almost always wears black, but she thinks in Technicolor. Lorie has been living in Durango full time for 16 years, soaking up the beauty of Colorado.
