I have lived in San Francisco and Oakland for the past 25 years, and have an abiding appreciation for the richness that Bay Area living has to offer. Before coming to a career in real estate, I worked in the local film industry producing and editing documentary films, commercials, and music videos. Collaboration, creativity, and cultivating strong and lasting relationships are the energizing principles behind my work. One of the cornerstones of my business is community education and outreach, I enjoyed hosting many networking events and community workshops on a variety of topics regarding home ownership, resources for financial health and literacy in preparation for home ownership, and property stewardship. I am deeply committed to investing in our local community and have developed a three-pronged giving approach at the close of every transaction to the local organizations who are working tirelessly to address the needs of the community that we share, live in, and love. I enjoy rambling around the East Bay trails with my daughter on our mountain bikes, spending time with my family, and can often be spotted at the Freight and Salvage in Berkeley, or the Ivy Room in Albany, enjoying our vibrant local music scene.
