About

Raised in Northern California, I developed a strong foundation rooted in hard work, ethics, and communityprinciples that continue to shape my approach to real estate today. Dual-licensed in California and Illinois, I bring a wealth of local knowledge and global connections to every transaction. Coming from a highly competitive family of professional athletes, I am a former state-ranked tennis player, a lifelong equestrian, a runner, and a swimmer. This natural energy and enthusiasm drive my commitment to excellence, whether you are selling your first home, searching for a dream residence, or exploring investment opportunities. I am also deeply committed to giving back to the communities where I work and reside. My past volunteer work includes serving on the Board of Directors for STAND (Battered Womens Alternative) and supporting local food banks, women's shelters, and children's hospitals.
