A Vail Valley native, Kendal has deep roots here, and an even deeper appreciation for the work it takes to achieve real results in a small mountain resort community like Vail. As the daughter of two business owners, she learned early on that it takes diligence, resilience, creativity, and a strong work ethic to succeed.
Joining Slifer Smith & Frampton as an Office Marketing Coordinator in 2021, Kendal swiftly advanced to the role of Licensed Assistant for some of the company’s top-producing brokers. Now part of a father-daughter team, she brings a technology-forward approach to their marketing arsenal to expertly market their clients’ for-sale properties and seek out opportunities for their buyers. At the core of it all, she credits her integrity and meticulous attention to detail as the foundation of their top-notch client service.
An avid outdoor enthusiast, Kendal holds a degree in Environmental Studies from the University of Colorado. Post-graduation, she ventured to Costa Rica to deepen her understanding of sustainable development where she ignited a newfound interest in visual communication, leading her back to academia for her second degree in Graphic Design from the Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design (2020). Prior to beginning her real estate career, she worked for many family-run local businesses throughout Eagle County including the Steadman Philippon Research Institute, Gorsuch and The Golden Bear.
When not hard at work, you’ll find Kendal backcountry skiing, biking, camping, designing jewelry, hiking the dogs, and enjoying the outdoors whenever possible. She also loves spending time with friends and family, whether it’s catching a show at the Vilar or drinking margaritas at the incredible restaurants throughout the valley. Kendal lives in West Vail with her husband, Kevin, and two dogs, Nala and Ralphie (Go Buffs!).
