Specialties

I have two passions. Real estate. And music. Put them together and you have an agent who know homes, and knows how to make them sing. Here’s why.

I got into real estate on the ground floor – literally. Thanks to over six years of hands-​on experience training with a master/​builder and electrician, I learned every aspect of construction – from foundation to finish. I know homes. Inside and out. And that’s to your advantage.

Whether you want to ready your house for market, inspect a home prior to purchase, or make improvements once you’ve bought your home, I can make it happen – fast. I work closely with a talented team of professionals including two builder/​contractors, a plumber, electrician, roofer, home inspector, termite inspector, structural engineer, architect, draftsman, interior designer, insurance agent, landscaper and gardener.

In addition to my extensive background in construction, I also bring a keen aesthetic sense to the table. After all, I grew up surrounded by music. My mother is an operatic soprano and my father was a distinguished symphony conductor. I had a lucrative career in music as well, singing opera and playing chamber music around the world.

Music taught me to listen and to communicate at a deeper level. I’m a sharp negotiator; devoted to helping my clients realize the best possible outcomes.

History

Established in 2000.

Since 2000 I’ve bought and sold by own investment properties and single family homes. I then trained with a master builder/​plumber and electrician for 6 years, learning every aspect of construction from foundation to finish. I KNOW homes. Once that apprenticeship and work was complete I continued building and chose to combine my skill of building and remodeling with helping others buy and sell their properties. Real Estate Sales was a natural and logical augmentation to my long term goals and business plan.

My experience as a builder always works to your advantage. I have my hands in several projects, currently, with my clients who’ve bought and sold with me here in the Bay Area. They love my input and guidance. I love my job!

Business Owner

For me life is a wonderful journey of the Unknown and the Unexpected! As a child I was on course to attend West Point like my father and be a military pilot like my Grandfather. I was then given the gift of attending the McCallie School in TN, where I learned music, arts, language and prepared to attend Vanderbilt University where I graduated with a Bachelor of Music. A pianist since the age of 5, I honed that craft and my tenor voice singing opera, music theatre and toured with the Roger Wagner Chorale both here in the USA and abroad.

I then settled in Marin County in 2003 and began working in construction. I built and remodeled several homes here in the Bay Area and welcomed the gift of my 2 sons, now 7 and 9. With my knowledge of homes and success in my own investments in real estate, I grew my nexus in business, helping others with their real estate needs. When I’m not working I spend time with my sons, mountain bike, practice yoga and engage in the Metaphysics of Consciousness.
