ABOUT US
I remember how it felt when my wife and I bought our first home. It was exhilarating and empowering.
It was also an incredible learning experience. From that moment on I developed an interest and passion
for real estate.
I graduated from California State University at Fullerton, with a Bachelors of Degree in Human Services.
I also attended Claremont Graduate University as a Ronald E. McNair Scholar. After college, I worked in
human services and helped underserved communities access critical resources in Los Angeles and the
San Gabriel Valley.
In 2006 I decided to pursue a career in real estate. So I left my career in human services to work full-time
in residential appraisal. The following year I obtained a brokers license. In 2009, my appraisal experience
helped me secure a contract with US Bank to sell foreclosed properties.
There was an amazing amount of distress in the market at this time. People needed help. More importantly,
they needed agents who were willing to place a higher value on the weight of their humanity than the size
of a paycheck.
My background in human services set me apart. Combined with the expertise I developed as an agent, my
overall training and experience allowed me to provide a high level of personalized service. I became a
unique asset to my clients and the industry.
As the market bounced back my expertise in real estate sales deepened. I helped many buyers and sellers
successfully navigate local markets. I also helped families, who lost homes in the housing crash, re-enter
the market under better terms. I consider this to be some of my most rewarding work to date!
It’s ironic. The same instinct that led me to the field I left over a decade ago (human services), guides my
practice and business philosophy today. As a broker, I’m in business to help people.
