Ariana James West
Ariana is our leasing specialist and our in-house travel consultant; an Albuquerque native, but ask her about any place in the world and she’s probably been there. With her background as an international, corporate travel director, she brings a wealth of experience in interacting and negotiating with people from all walks of life, from Fortune 500 Companies to those indispensable local small businesses. However large or small your leasing needs, Ariana is your go-to-girl. When not dovetailing that perfect tenant into your property, she can be found with her two children mountain biking and hiking the mountain trails or enjoying a round of golf with her Brit of a husband. A former ski instructor, kayaker, raft guide and wrangler, you can always depend on Ariana to lasso that dream tenant.
