About Me
Real estate has been a lifelong interest for me, rooted in curiosity about how people live, how neighborhoods evolve, and what makes a place feel like home. As a kid, I was fascinated by houses, streets, and architecture, often exploring different neighborhoods and imagining the stories behind the homes I saw.
That curiosity eventually led me to study architecture and urban planning at UC Berkeley, where I developed a deeper understanding of design, land use, and the forces that shape communities over time. Today, that perspective informs how I approach real estate: I don’t just look at a property, I look at the neighborhood around it the long-term potential, and what it would be like to live there..
Having lived in the Bay Area for more than 40 years, I have watched its neighborhoods transform, grow, and reinvent themselves. From San Francisco’s historic urban districts to the Peninsula’s diverse residential communities, I have a deep appreciation for what makes each area unique and what draws people to call it home.
I bring that perspective to every client relationship, helping buyers understand not only the properties they are considering, but also the lifestyle, opportunities, and possibilities that come with each location.
Real estate is ultimately about finding the right fit—between people, properties, and places.
I look forward to helping you find yours.
I am proud to work alongside Matt Flynn at Park North Real Estate, where we combine complementary strengths, market knowledge, and a shared enthusiasm for helping clients navigate one of the most important decisions they will make.

A perfect afternoon is spent with a new Vanity Fair, beach or poolside.
Pure bliss.
THE OBSESSION
The Hyatt Regency. It’s so groovy!
THE PROPERTY
Listing a mini Hearst Castle in the Tenderloin was incredible.
THE PET PEEVE
“Remuddling”: the misguided remodeling of a building that obscures its original architectural character.
THE WINDOWS
All a plain building really needs.
THE CONFESSION
I have a great sense of direction, but am terrible at trivia.
THE ALTERNATE UNIVERSE
Architecture was my original plan, but being in real estate allows me to indulge my love of houses and architecture together.
