Using my rich knowledge of the wonderfully diverse East Bay neighborhoods, 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. Buying or selling a home in today's intense market is exciting, challenging, and one of the biggest financial decisions most people will ever make. That's why I'm here for my clients every step of the way, whether their investment is a starter home or a million-dollar estate. After two decades in the industry, I've learned it's important to be part cheerleader and sometimes therapist, too! I specialize in cutting-edge marketing and excellent negotiation skills. I've lived in Oakland for more than 20 years, so I am exceptionally knowledgeable about the Oakland Hills, Piedmont, Montclair, Rockridge, Oakmore, Claremont Hills, and Glenview. I have invaluable connections here, including with the best local tradespeople. (I also know about the best dog-friendly trails, so ask me!) Above all, I am a fantastic listener, I care deeply about my clients, and I go the extra mile to meet and exceed expectations!
