Having lived in the East Bay for more than three decades, I understand the rewards and the challenges of living in this area. Whether buying or selling a home, there are many decisions to make, requirements to fulfill, and tasks to perform. With my knowledge, and the resources of Zip Code East Bay, I can help you make informed, fruitful decisions in order to reach your real estate goals.

My approach is to be client focused, understanding your needs and goals, and working through the tasks at hand without losing sight of the big picture. As my client, you can expect from me a high degree of professionalism, communication and attention to the details that are crucial to your success.

Prior to becoming a Realtor®, I worked for the state of California in implementing and supporting HR and accounting software for the Judicial Council—the court system. I have also worked in the private sector as an Accountant and Financial Planning Manager.  

I grew up near Sacramento with four siblings. Some fond memories include playing little league baseball and going on camping trips with my family; two interests I still relate to today, by watching and attending baseball games and enjoying being in the outdoors.  

My education includes a B.S. in Business Admin/Accounting and an MBA from California State University, Sacramento. I moved to the East Bay after college, first living in Concord. I’ve also lived in Pleasant Hill and Walnut Creek.  My wife, Zoe, and I now live in central Berkeley. We work as a Realtor® team at Zip Code East Bay.
