Broker Associate | CalDRE# 00753311
In 1979, I started my career working part-time selling real estate while finishing my Bachelors of Science program from the California State University Long Beach. After graduating in 1983 with a degree in Finance with options in Financial Management and Real Estate, I started my career as a full time real estate agent. Today, I am a Real Estate Broker with 40 years in the industry meeting the needs and interests of my clients with integrity and professionalism. I have closed over $175 Million in Real Estate transactions from $35,000 homes to $4,850,000 estates and successfully negotiated the partnership between Firstteam Real Estate (sales of over $5.4 billion) and Bank of California (assets of over $8.2 billion). I now work with Keller Williams.
There is nothing like the outdoors and I have a strong connection to nature. I am a volunteer for our SAR Search And Rescue and coordinator of our Alpine / Rope Team, working with the Sheriff's Department for the greater San Bernardino County.
