Colleen Hadden has always been driven by a desire to help people. Before becoming a real estate agent, Colleen taught at Haddonfield Middle School for over eight years and coached high school girl's soccer. When her family moved to Tokyo, she served on the board of the American School in Japan, working on curriculum development. Collectively, these experiences taught her adaptability and strength, which she draws on often in her work.

After years of moving around the world, she experienced firsthand the importance of having a REALTORⓇ who is deeply rooted in the community and knowledgeable about the areas they service. She wanted to be that same resource for others. Colleen’s favorite part of being an agent is helping others navigate the emotional side of a transaction. She knows that moving can be a huge life change, and she’s always there to support her clients every step of the way. She genuinely cares for her clients, and this sets her apart from other agents.

To Colleen, success means doing what she loves every day and finding balance between work and family. She is heavily involved in her local community, serving as the PTA president for her elementary school, serving on the board of the Haddonfield Japanese Exchange Program, actively partnering with and supporting local businesses, donating her time and resources to youth sports and our public schools, as well as many other philanthropic endeavors in the South Jersey and Philadelphia areas.

For the future, Colleen wants to continue to make an impact on everyone she encounters: her clients, her local community, and those in need in the South Jersey area. She knows that success isn’t just about selling properties; it’s about showing up in a big way for the people that matter most.
