Using my rich knowledge of the East Bay, I’ve been bringing buyers and sellers together since 2002. My greatest joys are handing people keys to their dream homes and guiding sellers through a smooth, profitable process. Today’s intense market is exciting and challenging. That’s why I’m here for clients every step, whether their investment is a starter home or a multi-million-dollar estate. I am a fantastic listener, I care deeply, and I’m your biggest cheerleader! I specialize in cutting-edge marketing, expert negotiations, and in-depth neighborhood intel – especially Oakland, Piedmont and Rockridge. (As a longtime resident, I also know the best dog-friendly trails, so ask!) Above all, I go the extra mile to meet and exceed expectations!
