When enlisting the service of a real estate professional, you want someone who is both knowledgeable and experienced in all aspects of real estate and has a solid understanding of the unique San Diego real estate market. With nearly three decades of professional real estate experience in both sales and brokerage, I am a trusted advisor my clients can rely on. Ascending to the peak of the luxury real estate market requires traits that I possess in abundance. Detail, patience and integrity are hallmarks that have defined my practice since 1979.

Still passionate about real estate I joined Sotheby's International Realty as a broker associate where I continue to share my deep understanding of the market and hard-won experience in transaction process and negotiation. I am a member of the National Association of Realtors and North County Board of Realtors.
