Get to know Audra in our spotlight Q&A:
Q: What do you love most about being an agent in Dripping Springs?
A: Dripping Springs has been home to my family since 2009, so being able to serve this community is incredibly meaningful to me. There’s a reason people want to live here—it has that small-town charm where neighbors genuinely care about each other. I’m so grateful to do what I love in a place I truly love.
Q: What’s your favorite part of being in real estate?
A: I love helping clients reach the finish line and experience the joy of a new chapter. By the time we reach closing, we’ve navigated a lot together. That moment represents hard work, teamwork, and a big win. I always look forward to seeing who the Lord sends my way next.
Q: What would you say is your superpower?
A: Patience and calm communication. In this business, emotions can run high, but I’ve learned not to get emotionally attached to outcomes. I stay grounded so I can guide my clients with clarity and care. My goal is to protect relationships and provide a peaceful experience, no matter how complex the transaction.
Q: Describe your ideal day.
A: My ideal day would begin with coffee and quiet time on the porch at our ranch property. Then I’d spend the rest of the day with family—maybe go on a nature hike, play games, enjoy some smoked BBQ, or work on a small project. And if it ends with a massage? Perfect!
Q: How does being part of Dripping Springs Elite benefit your clients?
A: DS Elite is a powerful network of 25 local agents and brokers who really know the Dripping Springs market. We collaborate to promote listings, share buyer needs, provide feedback, and often get a sneak peek at properties before they hit the market. It’s also a great resource for trusted vendors, service providers, and insider updates. My clients benefit from all of that shared expertise.
Q: What brings you joy outside of work?
A: Time with my family is everything. My husband, Mark, and I love quiet evenings, dinner dates, and spending time with friends. As empty nesters, we treasure every chance to be with our adult kids. I also love baking and working in my flower gardens—it’s a great way to mentally reset and reflect.
