Janet chose Santa Fe as her hometown in 1972 after growing up and being educated in Kansas. For over twenty-five years she owned a property management firm, The Management Group, which specialized in luxury vacation rentals. Her property management firm hired over twenty five staff members and independent contractors and the firm managed 200 properties for homeowners. Janet was a innovator of the vacation rental market giving guests the opportunity to enjoy their Santa Fe experience by staying in beautiful homes and experiencing exceptional service. She created a maintenance arm to the business with knowledge of construction and systems in properties which has proven to be an asset in her real estate sales business.

In her early career, she was an escrow officer and VP of a title company in Santa Fe and gained experience in understanding title insurance binders, title policies, surveys, easements and other title issues, which she finds is valuable knowledge with which to share with buyers and sellers of real estate. She was a member of the Buckaroo Ball Committee, which raises money for at-risk children in Santa Fe County, for five years, serving as chair of several committees. She has also served on committees for Hospice and The Chamber Music Festival. Janet has been a New Mexico qualifying real estate broker for thirty years and also holds a real estate broker's license in Colorado.
