My son asked me what career I would have if I wasn't a realtor, and I said I couldn't think of anything else I would rather be doing! It's been 20 successful years of representing buyers and sellers in all parts of the City, and I am proud to be consistently recognized as a top agent in San Francisco and in Sotheby's International Realty.
Before starting in real estate, I had two career experiences that contributed to the success I have today. Starting as a management trainee for Hyatt Hotels, I did EVERYTHING - made beds, bussed tables and checked in guests on the midnight shift - and because of it, I developed a 100% customer service focus. Later, I managed mergers and acquisitions activity for Bank of America and Intel Corporation, where I learned to be a calm presence in the midst of controlled chaos and gained respect as a no-nonsense, solutions-driven negotiator.
I live by the phrase, "do what you say you will do", and I ensure my work reflects it every day. My clients know I can navigate them through our sophisticated housing market to get the deal done, and they can rely on me for a multitude of resources - from referrals to local vendors to trusted real estate advisors around the globe. I am well respected in the brokerage community, which is a very important consideration for you since the person you hire will essentially become your face and voice when communicating on your behalf with buyer and seller agents.
I am deeply committed to my work and my family - husband Dennis, son Declan and spoiled cat, Dixie. I am a fourth generation Californian and a 35-year resident of San Francisco, and with my husband, we have raised our son in the City. We appreciate the Bay Area’s natural beauty and unique opportunities, along with its challenges.
In my spare time I play tennis and golf, serve on the USTA NorCal grievance committee and am a dedicated Olympic Club committee member. If there is any time left over, I attempt to get through the stack of books on my nightstand.
