I was born in Santa Fe, New Mexico and grew up in Scottsdale, Arizona — a true desert girl. After graduating from the University of Colorado, Boulder, with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Journalism, I moved to Marin County in 1978.
I now live in Stinson Beach and enjoy the sights of the county's hills and beaches. One of my favorite activities is when we take our beagle, Ella Mae, for a walk on the beach.
Community service has been a cornerstone of my life in Marin. I have served on the boards of the Junior League of San Francisco and Marin Advocates for Children, and I have a long history of fundraising in the county. I am an active member of both the Children's Theater Association of San Francisco and Achievement Awards for College Students. I currently serve as the President of the Marin Chapter of the Women's Council of Realtors.
I have both remodeled and built my own home which allows me to understand design elements of a home along with demands of design review, permits and finding the best professionals to assist in the building process.
How I Work I have a tireless, patient, and no-pressure approach. I am attentive and responsive. I make things happen based on my clients' needs and time frame. As team leader I use my resources to coordinate the home buying or selling process with other principals, agents, inspectors, escrow officer and lender. I communicate openly at all times with you and use humor to help minimize the stress of buying or selling a home.
My Professional Philosophy I am a long time real estate professional with the goal of serving my clients' needs honestly, ethically, and efficiently. I believe in accountability and quality service in a professional and friendly manner. I believe good communication is key to making each real estate transaction a positive experience. My greatest reward is knowing that my clients are happy at the end of our transaction.
Professional affiliations include Marin, California and National Association of Realtors, Marin Platinum Group, Top Agent Network, Women's Council of Realtors, Council of Residential Specialists and the Right Move Group relocation company. Additionally, I am a certified Weichert relocation agent and a certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist®.
