With 30 years of successful international sales and marketing experience, I’ve always been a “real estate enthusiast” aka “geek”. I’ve been blessed to live in the Bay Area for over 20 years. I have also lived in New York and Miami, and I grew up in Chicago. No matter where I traveled and lived, I was always fascinated by local architecture and by extension, the art of real estate.

For over 10 years, when representing a seller or a buyer, I always brought tireless energy and creativity to the craft of real estate. Now that I am concentrating on sales management, I get to work with our Burlingame agents to make them as successful as possible. I am also still involved in the lives of my past clients in an advisory capacity.

When not assisting my clients and agent pool, I can be found enjoying all that the Bay Area offers with my wife and twin 13-year-old daughters. I speak fluent Spanish, and even a little Portuguese and Italian. I’m an avid hockey fan and golf hack. I love car shows, the arts, and fine wine. During the Covid pandemic, I rekindled my love affair with music, building guitars and basses and making my neighbors crazy.

I believe in giving back to the community, so every one of my transactions resulted in a financial donation to a charitable cause that benefited children’s education as well as medical research. Recent beneficiaries include The San Francisco AIDS Foundation, Dining Out for Life!, The Clifford and Adelante Schools in Redwood City, Habitat for Humanity, KQED Public Radio, The Glen Park Festival, and the Sunnyside SpringFest amongst others.
