Jordan

Jordan Pederson knows how to put on a show— and a showing.

She’s a passionate Poms coach, former pageant queen, and dedicated Realtor. As a Boulder native, Jordan has always loved representing her hometown. She credits her appreciation for Boulder County to the picturesque neighborhood she grew up in, Devil’s Thumb, which is surrounded by open space, trails, and the majestic Flatirons.

Her mother is an avid volunteer, sorority advisor, and full time she helps run their successful family business, HydraPouch LLC.

Her parents’ success never took away from their unmatched love and support of Jordan and her younger sister, Paige, and creating the perfect life and home for them both. Jordan attributes her leadership skills and work ethic to her hardworking parents and their commitment to their passions and their family.

Jordan recalls a tightknit community where she and her friends would walk to school and spend most of their time outdoors exploring the neighborhood and open space where her home resided. She realizes she was lucky to have such an idyllic childhood. Her sense of home was always solid. Her family played an important role in her idea of home as well. Her dad attended the Naval Academy for nuclear engineering and enlisted in the Navy for 5 years. He then joined the Navy Reserves for 7 years, obtained a master’s in engineering, and left to become an executive in the technology field and start his own business.

Jordan began college at Arizona State University but instantly had the urge to move home to Boulder again. She transferred to CU Boulder, where she studied communications and joined the CU Buff Gold Dance team. In her minimal spare time, she taught dance, as well as began working full-time for Nordstrom. She pledged Gamma Phi Beta as a legacy, and she advises the sorority to this day alongside her mother. She can credit Gamma Phi Beta for more than just sisterhood. She also met her husband, Johnny, through Panhellenic events her sorority and his fraternity hosted together.

The two fell in love, married, and moved to Scottsdale, Arizona briefly for Johnny to attend nursing school. But South Boulder never stopped being her home. In Arizona, Jordan continued working for Nordstrom and was quickly promoted to manager. She worked there for five years including through the COVID-19 pandemic. Even when Nordstrom was closed during the lockdown, she worked long hours and fulfilled online orders. Sadly, she realized the hard work wasn’t paying off—literally. She needed to find a career that could match her dedication and support her

had always loved architecture and homes and had an unwavering passion for helping people, so she decided to follow a long-time dream of hers and become a real estate agent.

Most importantly, she missed home and wanted to help others fall in love with Boulder and make it their home as well. She and Johnny moved back to Boulder. Johnny became an ICU nurse and she committed to her dream career. She found a local Boulder real estate company, 8Z, and applied for a position. Her outgoing

personality, experience in management, and passion for helping others made her a great fit for the industry. After just two years as a Realtor, Jordan has made over $20 million in sales, proving that making your dreams a reality can truly change your life.

Outside of real estate, Jordan is the head coach of Northglenn High School Poms. It’s a position that she holds with great pride. Dancing and pageantry have been a meaningful part of her life since she was young. She danced competitively growing up as a member of the Fairview Poms team, as well as professionally and at the collegiate level. In high school, she traveled across the country as part of a dance group

called The Silhouettes, which was featured on America’s Got Talent.

Along with dancing, Jordan competed in pageants. She won the title of Miss Boulder Teen in high school, which propelled her pageant career; and she since has held every Boulder title there is. She still judges competitions, helps direct pageants, and treasures her pageant wardrobe. By coaching Poms, she’s always close to her passion to perform and be on stage. She uses her impressive expertise to inspire the next generation.

When Jordan started coaching, Northglenn High School wasn’t exactly known for their Poms team. The team had six coaches in four years, and they were eager for some stability to provide a true, meaningful Poms experience to the dancers. Jordan has worked to

completely revamp and rebuild the program from the ground up. Aside from coaching the team, she brought the team (most of whom didn’t have prior dance experience) in for weekly formal dance training. With Jordan at the helm, and hard work and dedication from everyone, the team ended their year winning first place at the regional competition, UDA Rocky Mountain Dance Challenge, along with winning the coveted sportsmanship award.

Jordan sees her coaching role as more than just teaching dance. Her coaching mission statement is to “educate, elevate, empower, and equip dancers to become the best version of themselves both on and off the dance floor.”

Jordan sees coaching as an opportunity to teach valuable life lessons, be a positive influence, and provide the girls with an amazing experience. She routinely brings life coaches and motivational speakers to practices to inspire

her team. She’s seen the girls grow to become a bonded team and incredible young women. She also recognizes how coaching has changed her life, and the impact the team has had on her. A tough real estate sale is no problem compared to rallying a team of energetic teenagers. Her Poms team is another area where Jordan realizes the importance of making a home and a family.

When she’s not writing a winning offer or coaching a winning team, she enjoys going out to eat, hiking, playing tennis, and snowboarding in winter. She and Johnny love to spend time with friends and family, their dogs, and work on home renovation projects. She dotes over her two French Bulldogs, Reptar and Stitch, who she fondly refers to as her children. Jordan continues to create an ideal home for herself, her family, and her clients. She’s a Realtor who knows how to make the most out of life and make Boulder County feel like home for everyone.
