I am native Californian. I grew up in the Bay Area and moved to Sonoma County in 1975, married and traveled before settling in Kenwood, northern Sonoma Valley, to raise a family. I served in the hospitality industry for many years before entering real estate. My 25 years as a Sonoma County resident has given me local knowledge that I share with my buyers and sellers to help guide them through the real estate transaction. I hold the Ecogreen Certification, which means I'm familiar with green home building practices and I've earned the GRI designation. I stay informed and upto date with the many changes in real estate to best serve my clients.
