Shannon Ayres is a real estate professional based in Austin, TX. I moved to Texas from the Bay Area, and have spent several years familiarizing myself with Austin and all the surrounding areas in my previous role managing luxury consignment for The Real Real. My knack for style, and attention to people’s needs has paid off in my ability to help people find their perfect home, particularly those who are coming to Austin from California, other parts of Texas, and the Midwest where I grew up.

Prior to my career in real estate, I've had a long-standing career in corporate retail, managing divisions such as retail operations, merchandising, procurement, financial planning, and seasonal forecasting for large corporations such as Gap Inc. and Target Corp. In my role at The Real Real, I've single-handedly built and grew the Austin market, strategically managing and scaling the market through IPO, until deciding to pursue my passion for real estate full time.

In my spare time, my husband, a California and Austin-based tech exec and I enjoy spending time with our three daughters and two Goldendoodles. We enjoy sports, outdoor activities, and participating in National Charity League with my two oldest daughters. As residents of Rough Hollow, lake life very much suits us as California transplants.
