Cheryl Russell
I have proudly called El Dorado Hills home for 34 years, raising my three adult children here and building lasting relationships throughout the community. That long-standing connection gives me valuable local insight while allowing me to help clients wherever their real estate journey takes them.
My passion for health and fitness shaped my career for nearly 15 years as a personal trainer and group fitness instructor at local gyms. Working with people at all stages of life taught me how to listen closely, set clear goals, stay patient through challenges, and guide others through important transitions—skills that naturally inform my people-first approach to real estate.
As a newer agent, I bring fresh energy, strong dedication, and a highly personalized approach to every client, while learning alongside my mentor and dear friend, Lisa Paragary, who brings over 25 years of real estate experience across a wide range of transactions. Her guidance, combined with my hands-on style and attention to detail, allows me to deliver thoughtful service supported by proven strategies, strong negotiation skills, and the global resources of Sotheby’s International Realty.
Outside of work, I enjoy walking local trails, staying active, cooking, and entertaining friends and family—activities that keep me grounded and connected to the people around me. These interests reinforce my belief that a home is more than a purchase; it’s the backdrop for everyday life and meaningful moments.
Whether you’re buying your first home, moving into your next chapter, or searching for a place that truly feels right, I’m committed to providing clear guidance, honest communication, and steady support from start to finish. I’d love the opportunity to connect and help you move forward with confidence.
