I was raised in Tarzana, an area within the San Fernando Valley (a true Valley Girl, remember that song?) and having the name Jane and growing up in Tarzana did make it interesting (Yes, the Tarzan/Jane jokes). Before purchasing a home and moving to Big Bear in 1998, my husband and I were raising our daughter in Camarillo when we decided that we wanted a different pace of life and looked around & up and down California for a new place to call home.Happily we made a trip to Big Bear and we were sold on the change in seasons, great schools, out-door activities and no freeways, an island in the sky with an average of 300 sunny days per year and no smog (yes, I am in love with all of it).Prior to Real Estate sales, I was in restaurant management for many years which primed me for excellent customer service and ready for long hours to get the job done. I have taken advantage of continuing real estate education including marketing and advertising. I received my salesperson license in 1999 then acquired a broker's license in 2003. I am happy to have a great office location on Moonridge Road In Big Bear Lake. The village of Big Bear Lake is where you will find restaurants, Movie Theater, shops and entertainment venues, bars and such.I really love what I do, every day is different and I enjoy taking on every bit of problem solving that has come my way while living in this mountain paradise. My love of hiking works well for living in Big Bear with my husband, Ed (retired from L.A.P.D.) also a real estate broker.
