Selling your home for top dollar will require beautiful staging, excellent marketing, and strong negotiation. Prior to joining Coldwell Banker, I had a very successful 20-year marketing career. My strong work ethic, eye for design, application of the right marketing mix and people, and negotiation skills resulted in the promotion to Marketing leadership at only 28 years of age; leading marketing teams to grow and sell companies for top dollar.
I am passionate about people and helping them with one of the most important decisions of their lives. My goal is to make this experience pleasurable and as seamless as possible- working with clients through every step of the buying and selling transaction with the highest standards of integrity. I take you and your goals very seriously and I know that your success is my success.
I moved to Auburn nearly 20 years ago, from the bay area. Captivated by the region's beauty, outdoor life, convenient shopping, and yummy dining - it is home. My hobbies include home decorating, horseback riding, hiking, gardening, and having new experiences with my children. I serve on the board for my children's school's educational foundation, am a community council member for Placer Land Trust, and volunteer at and through my church.
- Listen to your needs and help you reach your goals
- Negotiate the best possible terms and price
- Explain the buying and selling process; with you reliably every step of the way
- Prepare and market your home to the widest range of serious buyers
- Professional, full-time real estate agent, dedicated to your success

I am a 5th generation Placer & El Dorado County resident whose family helped pioneer the fruit industry in this area. I grew up between the Bay Area area and Cool, CA on our family's Pear and cattle ranch. That has provided me a unique perspective and understanding of both country and city life. After graduating from Cal Poly, SLO, I began my real estate career as a Loan Officer/Appraiser with Farm Credit. I have commercially farmed Peaches, Prunes, Walnuts, and Grapes near Yuba City, CA, bringing back table grapes to their place of origin in Live Oak, CA.
Community service has always been a part of my commitment to the area from Past President of the Marysville/Yuba City Active 20/30 Club, American Cancer Society Man of the Year for Sutter and Yuba Counties, and various Lion Clubs. I currently help facilitate the Healing Through Loss and Grief Support Group in Roseville and am on the Board of Directors with my neighborhood HOA.
The natural progression after lending and appraisal was into real estate. With nearly 40 years of varied real estate experience, including appraisal, financing, land development, custom home design, construction, and property management, I am uniquely qualified to help clients buy and sell homes, farm properties, land, and development properties.

Find Your Next Home
You need someone who knows this area inside and out! I can work with you to find the right home at the right price for you, including all the neighborhood amenities that matter - not to mention the essential criteria you have for your ideal home
Sell a Home
When it's time to move, you need someone who will advertise your home, show to prospective buyers, negotiate the purchase contract, arrange financing, oversee the inspections, handle all necessary paperwork and supervise the closing. I can take care of everything you need, from start to close.
Consult on Home Selling Tactics
Oftentimes buyers don't visualize living in your home the way you do. I can make your home attractive to its ideal audience - which can help you get top dollar. Things like staging the home, making repairs or minor improvements, or even simply painting the walls can be the difference between a home resting on the market and one that's sold fast.
