As a sixth-generation San Francisco Bay Area native, real estate is not just my career — it’s part of my heritage. Developers, builders, and architects run through my family's history with roots on both sides dating back to the early 1800s. My lifelong connection to this region and decades of professional experience have given me a deep understanding of its neighborhoods, architecture, and ever-evolving market trends.​

​

My pioneer history shaped how I approach this profession. Raised in a second-generation real estate family, San Francisco and the surrounding counties are not simply my core market—they are part of me. I care deeply how they are treated and how they change. Clients can expect integrity, sound judgment, and a partnership they can trust, with guidance grounded in generations of local wisdom and the resolve of a true native.​

​

​​My personal journey also shaped how I advise clients. After losing both of my parents, I was entrusted with a complex estate on my own and saw how overwhelming property and planning decisions can feel without counsel. When it is useful, I introduce estate and tax specialists I trust, so real estate remains the focus.​

Community involvement has always been close to my heart. Over the past 25 years, I’ve volunteered with numerous philanthropic organizations and chaired countless committees, including those in The BizWorld Foundation, the Bay Area Red Cross, the San Francisco Ballet’s Encore, the San Francisco Symphony’s Symphonix, and the Junior League of San Francisco. One of my most rewarding experiences has been tutoring through “Back on Track,” a nonprofit supporting underprivileged children. The student I began mentoring at age six is now thriving as a college sophomore on an athletic scholarship—a reminder of the lasting impact that guidance and compassion can make.
