 This satellite image shows the large extent of the devastating Oakland/Berkeley fire - an event which strongly impacted our community in 1991. Since the fire, there has been a remarkable rejuvenation with many new homes constructed.
I am a full-time Real Estate agent affiliated with Pacific Union Real Estate located in the Montclair Village of Oakland. I work with sellers and buyers of residential, multiple-dwelling and investment properties primarily in Alameda and Contra Costa counties and understand that my value to you is in negotiation and skillfully obtaining the best possible price. Whether you are a seller or buyer of real estate, I practice my art knowing that the strength of negotiation is in the ability to walk away... but, the skill is never having to.
BACKGROUND: I have lived in the Oakland region since my family relocated here from New Jersey in 1973. I eventually attended Skyline High School and then graduated from U.C. Berkeley with a B.A. degree in Anthropology later earning an M.A. degree in Museum Studies. I worked in several Bay Area museums in curatorial, education, and collections management positions. I later worked in the finance, biotech and education corporate sectors as a writer and visual design artist translating content, data, and concepts into info-graphics for professional peer-reviewed academic journals, marketing pieces and large advertising campaigns. Continuing education in real estate is essential to bettering my skills and I participate regularly in advanced sales training through membership in a professional real estate coaching group composed of other top agents in California.
PROFESSIONAL/BUSINESS AFFILIATIONS: National Association of Realtors, California Association of Realtors, Oakland Board of Realtors
RECENT REAL ESTATE RECOGNITIONS: International President's Circle in 2002, 2004, 2005
