📍 Two markets. One team. Double the sharpness. 

At The Sharp Team, we believe real estate is personal—and for us, it's a family passion. As a mother-and-son duo, we bring decades of local knowledge, creativity, and dedication to every transaction, helping buyers and sellers feel confident, cared for, and in control.

About Shelly
Originally from St. Louis, I moved to Jacksonville over 45 years ago to attend Jacksonville University, where I earned my degree in Marketing. I’ve proudly called this city home ever since. I've been married to my husband, Rick, for over 38 years, and we raised two amazing kids—Brittany and Ricky—who both live locally (lucky me!). When I'm not working with clients, you’ll find me running, reading, gardening, or spending time with my sweet granddaughter, Eleanor. I’m also a devoted dog mom to our Cavapoo, Ozzie.

Professionally, I serve on the Board of the Jacksonville Chamber Arlington Council (since 2018) and am a graduate of the NEFAR Leadership Academy. I hold multiple real estate designations and certifications, including:

• Accredited Buyer’s Representative® (ABR)
• Real Estate Negotiation Expert® (RENE)
• Pricing Strategy Advisor® (PSA)
• e-PRO® Certification
• Commitment to Excellence® Endorsement (C2EX)
• Gold Key Certification® (GKC)
• At Home With Diversity® (AHWD)

It’s been an honor for The Sharp Team to be recognized as a Top Small Team by the Jacksonville Business Journal and named Top Producers within Watson Realty Corp.

About Ricky
Born and raised in Jacksonville, I graduated from Stanton College Prep and earned my degree in Communications from the University of North Florida. I began my career in the editing department at Channel 12 News, but soon followed in my mom’s footsteps and found my calling in real estate. I love connecting with people and helping them find where they truly belong.

Fluent in French and Spanish, I bring cultural understanding and a fresh perspective to every client experience. Outside of real estate, I’m a musician, singer, songwriter, and jazz lover. I play multiple instruments—including guitar, mandolin, ukulele, piano, drums, and trumpet. I also share my home with two quirky and lovable cats, Elvis and Stevie (yes, named after Stevie Nicks!).

With deep local roots, complementary strengths, and a shared commitment to client success, The Sharp Team is here to guide you home—with heart, hustle, and honesty.
