I have called Santa Cruz County home since 1978 and truly couldn’t imagine living anywhere else. This community offers an unmatched blend of stunning beaches, dramatic coastlines, majestic redwood forests, and rolling meadows overlooking the ocean. Sharing the beauty and character of this area—whether with long-time residents or clients discovering it for the first time—is one of my greatest joys.

With more than 35 years of experience as a real estate professional, I take great pride in helping clients achieve their dream of homeownership. I have successfully listed and sold a wide range of residential properties throughout Santa Cruz and the surrounding counties. I embrace challenges, and I believe that my strong negotiation skills, clear and consistent communication, integrity, enthusiasm, humor, and attention to detail are what keep clients returning and referring others.

Having lived and worked in this community for decades, I have built trusted relationships with the reputable professionals essential to a smooth real estate transaction. Long after closing, I’m happy to provide referrals—whether you need a contractor, a gardener, or simply a great local place for lunch.

I am actively involved in our local real estate community by having served on the Board of Directors for Santa Cruz County Assoc. of Realtors for many years. I am currently a Trustee on the Association’s Housing Foundation. We give closing cost grants to first-time, qualified home buyers. If you are a first responder, or work for one, the grant is doubled to $5000! Call me for more info.

I love what I do, and I strive to make every transaction as smooth and stress-free as possible. Whether you’re buying your first home, your fifth, an investment property, or a second home, I am committed to guiding you with the utmost care and expertise. And if you’re selling, I look forward to showing you how our comprehensive marketing program and my enthusiasm will make your property shine!
