I help Bay Area empty-nesters, second-home buyers, and first-timers kickstart their Sonoma life.

I'm a Northern California native with deep Bay Area roots — Sonoma's been home base since 1993, when my mom made the move from Marin. Real estate has taken me further: over a decade across three markets, starting in Manhattan Beach in 2012, then Naperville, IL, then back west to North Lake Tahoe, and now Compass Sonoma since January 2026.

That range of experience shapes how I approach every transaction — and it's paired with a curated, highly recommended network of local service providers and resources, vetted by homeowners who've actually used them, so my clients get recommendations they can trust. Work with me, and you get both big-picture strategy and boots-on-the-ground local knowledge.

I treat each transaction like a creative project and every client relationship like that of a best friend — both built on trust, honesty, and joie de vivre. I truly want the process to feel clear and supported.

Beyond the office (and open houses), my life is full — with two kids I love keeping up with (one at UW Madison, the other launching a career in Interior Architecture in Chicago), family + friends, plenty of hiking the North Bay, fitness classes at Park Point, live music, Tahoe and coastal getaways, and always learning something new.
