I grew up in Berkeley and have lived throughout the Bay Area, including San Francisco, Oakland, and Contra Costa County. My understanding of real estate began early, when my mother purchased a Berkeley fixer and involved me directly in the renovation process. That experience gave me an early, practical understanding of how homes are built, improved, and maintained.

I worked across all phases of renovation, from demolition and surface preparation to flooring, finishes, and overall project readiness, developing a lasting appreciation for quality, craftsmanship, and long term value.

After a 20 year career as a chef, I transitioned into real estate, bringing a disciplined, detail oriented, and service driven approach. Today, I work with clients who value discretion, clarity, and thoughtful guidance, helping them make informed decisions about where and how they live, while maintaining the balance that allows me to be present for my family.
