MY JOBS BEFORE REAL ESTATE
First few years out of college I worked as a job developer in San Francisco Chinatown . After that another few years in health and human services with the California Regional Center as for children and adults with developmental disabilities.

One day, I stepped into a whole new world at "the phone company" . No, I was not an operator, nor did I climb poles. I worked in marketing communications, product management and advertising sales.

Real estate is a natural fit for me to use my skills, and life experiences, to help others in one of the most important life changing decisions in their lifetime.

I love adventure, travel, great food and good friends, preferably all at once!
