I am a Sacramento resident and California native who has been licensed in this state since 1989.  I also lived and sold real estate in Omaha, NE for 13 years, where I still hold a broker's license.  While there, I discovered that the Midwest was a wonderful place in which to raise my daughter.  She is all grown up now and was recently engaged to be married (I just love my son-in-law to be!).   She lives in Chicago and thrives on the hustle and bustle of city life.  Although I miss her terribly, I am very happy to be back in my home state of California.  Luckily, there is a direct flight from Sacramento to Chicago!

Presently, I live with a special someone in the Natomas area of Sacramento.   He shares my love of cooking and tolerates the crazy hours that real estate sometimes demands.  In the summertime, we enjoy boating on both the Sacramento River and the American River and of course, I always have my eye on those gorgeous riverfront properties, coveting them as we go by!  Sometimes "we" go fishing...he brings a pole, I bring a book.  I just love to read and relax and enjoy the sun whenever we can sneak away!   

My recent move back to California gives me a special empathy for those who are anticipating or going through a move.  Buying or selling a home can be a huge source of stress.  It is my goal to help you complete your purchase or sale with a minimum of hassle and anxiety.

I am a full-time real estate agent with a special focus on REO disposition management.  During my career, I have valued millions of dollars worth of properties for asset managers in both the relocation sector and for major lending institutions.  I have successfully managed, marketed and sold relocation company and REO assets and I understand the urgency, need for communication and attention to detail that these types of transactions demand.

My experience spans over 19 years and I have been licensed in 3 states.  I have been through more than one real estate market cycle and I have the knowledge, insight and experience to help you with your real estate needs, whether you are buying your first home or selling your mansion.  My knowledge on both the buying and selling process is broad.  Some of the various kinds of transactions I've been involved with during my many years in real estate (in addition to the numerous first time buyers I have helped) have included working with corporate relocations, selling new construction for a large builder and helping investors complete 1031 exchanges and grow their real estate portfolios.  I recognize that each of my clients has unique needs and I pride myself in making sure I do everything possible to work with you towards YOUR goals so that we can achieve a timely, successful closing and get you happily settled in your new home or on the road to the next stage of your life.  I welcome the opportunity to do business with you!

One of my greatest joys and sources of satisfaction has always been the referral of a friend or family member by a past client.  To me, THAT is a true measure of a job well done.  I work hard to earn your trust and I will always give you my absolute best, without compromise!
