Professional Philosophy
|
|
|
|
Every one of my clients receives my personal attention to the myriad details of the home-buying and selling process. I believe that buying and selling a home is one of life's most important transactions. I strive to continuously provide the most professional service possible, utilizing the best tools of current technology, so that my clients receive superior real estate service.
Throughout my 20 years in practice my clients have continued to refer me to their family, friends and co-workers as a real estate resource – a tribute which I consider the highest compliment.

Personal Background
|
|
|
|
I was raised in the Silicon Valley when it was known as the Santa Clara Valley. I graduated from Monta Vista High School in Cupertino, and then lived in France as a foreign exchange student.
I obtained my AA degree in Spanish from De Anza College in Cupertino, and then my BA in Public Relations from San Jose State University.
I lived in Mexico City for one year as a foreign exchange student at the MBA International Business program at Universidad IberoAmericana.
I worked for 15 years at Hewlett-Packard Company in various technical marketing positions.
At Coldwell Banker I achieved the 2006 & 2007 top 5% sales award.
However, my greatest personal triumph has been raising my two accomplished daughters, Elise and Erica, Los Altos High School graduates.
