Chris and his family purchased property in Red Ledges and live in the community full time. He and his wife Stefanie have two daughters, Brooklyn and Sofia, and one son, Owen. They enjoy many of the outdoor recreational activities that Red Ledges offers, including golf, skiing, tennis, horseback riding, and hiking. Prior to working at Red Ledges, Chris served as the Director of Sales and Marketing at Crystal Sands, a luxury beachfront development on the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica. His career also includes working as a sales executive with master planned resort-style communities in North Carolina, Maryland, and Belize.
Christine Paramore Fielding has been in the real estate industry for over 13 years with an emphasis on new construction and luxury resort communities. A native of Salt Lake City, she has loved helping those from all over the world feel at home in Utah. She counts her lasting relationships with her clients, children and grandchildren among her biggest blessings. In her free time, you can catch Christine spending time with her family and friends outdoors.
Red Ledges is home to one of the most scenic private tennis clubs in the Park City region. Members can play 3 sets and enjoy winding down at the swimming pool, spa, or relax with beverages at The Red Ledges Clubhouse. All are a short walk from the luxury mountain homes in our vibrant master planned community.
Joining 31 other locations across the country, The Cliff Drysdale Tennis School at Red Ledges is the first high-altitude tennis school offered by U.S. Open doubles champion and ESPN commentator Cliff Drysdale.

Cynthia is originally from Chicago but has lived in the Heber Valley for over 20 years. During that time, she has worked several years in the Utah real estate industry. Initially as a part-owner of a residential loan origination company, she spent countless hours helping families purchase the homes they wanted. After taking a few years off to be a mother to her six children, she managed a real estate law firm office before taking the opportunity to work at Red Ledges in their sales and marketing department. Now as an agent, she again has the satisfaction of helping families find the perfect home in a more personal way. When not working at Red Ledges, Cynthia is most likely found hiking, kayaking or otherwise outdoors with her husband, Jason and her children.
Originally from Virginia, Eric Gingras migrated west to pursue his obsession of big mountain snow skiing. Eric purchased property at Red Ledges in 2010 and was one of the first to build a home in the community, which he moved into in 2012 (the 3rd full time resident of Red Ledges!). He has held executive level Marketing and Sales positions in multiple Fortune 500 Companies that allowed him to reside near a hub airport, so he is intimately familiar with the easy drive to SLC. Eric has bought here, built here and lives here - so he is well versed in the Red Ledges property, culture and lifestyle. This experience makes him ideally suited to help you understand the community and find your dream property or home!

Jenee grew up in Utah, enjoys wellness activities and outdoor pursuits including hiking and paddle boarding with her husband Chad and their son Cam.
