Bio
Originally from Staunton, VA, Ava brings a grounded, community-rooted perspective to commercial real estate in the Shenandoah Valley. Growing up in a family of real estate investors and entrepreneurs, she developed an early appreciation for how property and business intersect, and has spent years building the knowledge and instincts to match.
Ava joined the Cottonwood Commercial team with a focus on investment properties and commercial transactions, bringing a client-first approach and a genuine passion for helping people make smart, strategic decisions with their assets. Her background in a family of active investors gives her a real-world understanding of how owners think, allowing her to offer counsel that goes beyond the deal and stays focused on long-term value.
Ava is passionate about building lasting relationships in the Valley and beyond, and is committed to growing alongside the clients and communities she serves. She approaches every transaction with curiosity, care, and a deep respect for what's at stake for the people she works with. In her free time, Ava enjoys snowboarding, hitting the gym, and staying active outdoors.
