FAQ
Know your numbers before you start looking. Get fully pre-approved — not pre-qualified — so when you find the right property, you can move fast. In competitive San Diego markets like Carmel Valley, Carlsbad, and La Jolla, the best homes go quickly. Work with an agent who knows the neighborhoods at the street level, not just the zip code. And don't just buy a house — buy a location and a lifestyle you'll grow into
Pricing strategy is everything. The biggest mistake sellers make is overpricing and chasing the market down. My listings sell in a median 22 days — 39% faster than the Carmel Valley market average — because we price accurately from day one. Invest in professional staging and photography, declutter ruthlessly, and trust the data. A well-prepared home priced right will outperform an overpriced home every time, even in a strong market
First-time homebuyers, move-up families, luxury estate sellers, investors building rental portfolios, and clients relocating to San Diego from LA, the Bay Area, and out of state. I also work with sellers in Rancho Santa Fe, La Jolla, and Carlsbad's most competitive luxury neighborhoods. My sweet spot is clients who value strategy and results over hand-holding — people who want an agent who brings data, market knowledge, and a plan.
I recently represented the buyer on a $6.2M estate on Emerald Lane in Rancho Santa Fe. The property was listed at $6.95M and had been on the market for over 100 days. We identified the seller's motivation, structured a clean offer with favorable terms, and negotiated the price down $750K while keeping the deal smooth for both sides. Closed on time, no drama. That's the kind of transaction I love — where strategy and patience create real value for the client.
I got into real estate because I've always been drawn to building things — and real estate is the intersection of design, negotiation, investment, and people. I started in 2016 and built my business across both San Diego and Washington State. Over 10 years and $92M+ in transactions later, I'm still driven by the same thing: helping people make smart decisions with the biggest financial move of their lives.
I'm a member of the San Diego Association of REALTORS® and licensed in both California (#02041346) and Washington State. I work with The Oppenheim Group, one of the most recognized luxury brokerages in California, which gives my clients access to a global network, premium marketing resources, and the brand recognition that opens doors in luxury markets. My edge isn't a designation — it's 10 years of market data, negotiation experience, and a track record that speaks for itself.
