Eastside and luxury real estate, approached like a data and marketing problem — because that's what it is. I'm an Issaquah-based broker working across Bellevue, Kirkland, Sammamish, Redmond, and Woodinville, the waterfront enclaves of Medina, Clyde Hill, Hunts Point, and Yarrow Point, Seattle proper, and resort communities like Suncadia.

Most agents list a home and wait. I built my own real estate platform from the ground up, partnered with Homes.com, and developed a digital distribution approach that puts listings in front of qualified buyers proactively, not passively. When you list with me, your home isn't just on the market — it's being marketed.

For buyers, the same data-first approach answers the questions that actually matter on the Eastside: not just what a home is worth today, but how Issaquah compares to Sammamish, where neighborhood trajectory and school access are heading, and what resale looks like over time.

Years rehabbing homes gave me a trained eye for condition and value. A Master's in Financial Real Estate from Georgetown and a B.A. from Johns Hopkins mean I'm comfortable with both the numbers and the negotiation. I've been quoted as a Seattle-area expert in Realtor.com, Axios, Travel + Leisure, Newsweek, Nasdaq, Yahoo Finance, and more — and I speak plainly about the market, even when the news isn't great.

I also work with investors and landlords who want a broker who understands the financial side of a deal. I live in Issaquah with my wife Elly and our kids Lilly and Teddy. If you're thinking about buying, selling, or investing across the Eastside or Greater Seattle — let's talk.
