Luxury Home Specialist
Serving Lamorinda and Surrounding East Bay Communities
Thank you for considering me as your real estate agent! I love the challenges and rewards of selling homes and helping people make transitions in their lives. My clients tell me that the high level of personal attention I give to their transaction is one of their favorite things about working together!
I've been a consistent top producer and award-winning Contra Costa and Alameda County real estate Broker with over 90 million in past sales and listings since 2003 - specializing in Lamorinda, Walnut Creek, Berkeley and Oakland and have lived in Lamorinda for 35+ years. I was featured on KTVU Channel 2 in a segment regarding the Lafayette local economy. The depth of my real estate experience and networking has also allowed me to build valuable relationships with other local Contra Costa and Alameda agents which gives my clients that added advantage in this competitive time.
My preparation for home sales involves the use of beautiful staging, professional photography, and virtual marketing with Compass which is a leader in the technology and real estate business. I’m known for my expertise in pricing- I study current market conditions and trends constantly. My past results have consistently demonstrated selling my listings for top price. I also really enjoy working with buyers and providing experienced counseling on how to submit a competitive offer that will help you buy your dream home!
My transition from a previous career, caring for patients as an RN at Kaiser Permanente Walnut Creek Operating Room came naturally. I have also been an entrepreneur and business owner. In addition, I am an experienced investor owning multiple properties. I understand how to build wealth through real estate and enjoy leading my clients through this process!
