Owner/CEO @Stafford Gallery

My love of art began in the 6th grade after viewing the traveling exhibition of Armand Hammer's private collection. My passion for fine art was reignited at UC Santa Cruz, where I graduated Summa Cum Laude in Art History. I decided to be one of the liberal arts majors with a career in her educational field, which led me to direct Martin Gallery in Charleston, SC for a total of seven years. During this time, I was also bitten by the real estate bug and co-created XL Diversified, LLC, a company through which we bought, renovated, rented, and sold five homes in two years. Returning to California in 2007, I received my CA real estate agent license and began assisting my father, Tom Stafford, a broker for over 40 years. We have continued to pursue our love of residences, and the first iteration of Stafford Realty came into being in 2013. In 2017, I also manifested the dream of owning Stafford Gallery in Healdsburg, CA. Specializing in eclectic, curated fine art collections, the work includes award-winning wildlife sculpture, acrylic and oil paintings, large format photography, fine art glass, and exquisite jewelry. Stafford Gallery is now available online only. I currently live in Brooklyn, NY, fulfilling another dream of training dogs and working with their people!More...
