About Me

Writers are often told “just write about what you know and success will follow.” When you think about it, this is true for any profession. So when I became a real estate agent in 2012 I decided to totally concentrate on what I know best, homes and golf villas at the Ventana Canyon Golf and Racquet Club. After all, I’ve lived here since 2005.

About Me

My first transaction happened soon after I earned my license and there have been 85 more to date. Also, management at Sotheby’s presented me with customer service awards. The recognition is great but customer service is just something I do automatically, almost like breathing. And that’s the fun part of helping folks, anticipating their needs even before they think of something.

Apparently there are other factors at play here besides knowledge of upscale communities in this often unpredictable real estate market. My thinking is customer service is right up there with my years as a professional salesman and corporate owner/manager. All of these skills and experiences add to my desire to help folks. The way I see it, I simply treat everyone making a life changing decision to buy or sell a home just like I would treat myself.
