Being in real estate today requires a "can-do" philosophy for success for clients, the highest level of customer service with extraordinary ethical integrity and the ability to negotiate and win.


As a San Francisco resident since 1994, I have been successfully guiding buyers, sellers, and investors in real estate since 2013. My experience in interior design and fine art/ antique sales provides clients with an ally in reimagining properties or to add the personal function and style to a home for the highest best sale price. I often see opportunity for buyers where others may not; by using my expertise and vast design experience to help clients see what a property can be. My direct approach to identifying, researching, and discovering solutions to challenges allows us to utilize my vast list of designers, trade professionals, and resources to accomplish your vision with great results.


The most appreciated quality, clients often remark on, is our "one-stop, can-do philosophy". I prefer to be your direct contact person, so you will always speak with me for all related questions and needs, then I delegate to my experienced, trusted team to get the answers and to complete the job efficiently and on-time. Our primary goal is to alleviate the stress and concern for clients and to handle all the challenges before they arise.


It is because of my dedication to client service that I have enjoyed continued growth and success in the industry. Real Trends has ranked me in the top 1.5% of all 1.6 million agents nationwide in 2022 and I am in the top ten agents by production in my office at 555 Castro St. My sellers also average 8.5% above list price when selling, as my career average.


A large part of my success stems from my belief in giving back and paying-it-forward. I am an active participant in HomeForAHome.org; which builds homes for people in Central America using the donations and physical labor of supporters like me. I am also a strong advocate of the SPCA and the proud owner of two beautiful French Bulldogs, Nola and Belle. Another charity I am honored to work with is the Aids Life Cycle ride from San Francisco to LA; which I have supported for over a decade as they continue to do important community work. I believe in investing in my community because together we are at our greatest.


In fact, my success in real estate is simply an extension of my lifelong focus on achieving my goals and a testament to my hard-working, Midwestern values and upbringing. My drive began long before I studied Medicine at Ohio University, then progressed as I went on to work as an interior designer and expert in museum quality antiques; which showcases my varied interests. Working in design with a vast array of celebrities, business leaders, and creative visionaries, I have enjoyed working with clients such as Oprah Winfrey, Robert & Margrit Mondavi, and the countless international business leaders. My service is consistent to clients with the highest level of expectation, be that first time home-buyers, young families or CEOs.


Being the second of seven children, I have possessed a drive to stand-out and lead since I was a child, which has served me well in business. I couple that with my own personal philosophy of always doing the right thing and sticking to a task until resolved and to collaborate with professionals and clients for the highest level of success for all.


After work, my personal passions are traveling the world with my partner, family and friends, keeping fit and riding my bike to explore the Bay Area, and experimenting in my kitchen to build meals to share with other visionaries, creatives and leaders to always grow and work on becoming the best version of myself possible.
