Julie Keefer of CENTURY 21 Epic

Personal Profile

A 2nd generation Petaluman, I am the daughter of long time Petaluma business owners who loved going to open houses. So imagine my childhood excitement when one day in the mid-1970s that open house turned into my family's new house in Westridge.

I had the privilege of going to Grant Elementary School (after transferring from the equally amazing Cherry Valley school), Petaluma Junior High and Petaluma High School. I graduated from UC Santa Barbara with a degree in business economics, and began my real estate career managing a Class A commercial high-rise office building in San Francisco on California Street, in the heart of the Financial District.

After meeting my husband whose job transferred him to Colorado, I followed him there and continued to manage commercial properties in downtown Denver and the metro area as a Colorado Broker Associate. We planned our wedding from afar and got married in Sonoma and later had two kids. Loving Colorado and our neighbors but missing the proximity to family, we wanted our family to experience the same small town, close to family upbringing that I had growing up in Petaluma. So, after about 7 years in Colorado, we moved back to Petaluma!

Things I have done while raising my family tend to focus on my kids' activities: Waugh PTA member and Waugh School District's WISE Foundation treasurer for several years, active classroom mom/helper, coaching soccer, supporting my daughter in her dance competitions, supporting my husband while he coached soccer and basketball, and cheering my kids on while they played their respective sports including lacrosse, basketball, football, soccer, baseball and softball. I also enjoy home improvement projects, spending time with family, wine tasting with friends, camping, snow skiing, and boating.

I've found selling real estate to be very exciting and I feel very fortunate to have such a wonderful team behind me! With my solid work ethic, integrity and dedication, I look forward to becoming your real estate agent!
