A little bit about us...

With a psychology degree from the University of Colorado Denver, I bring a deep understanding of human behavior and communication dynamics to my real estate practice. Since moving to Hayward's Fairview neighborhood in 2019, I've immersed myself in the local market, specializing in assisting first-time homebuyers. I'm passionate about educating them on the nuances of real estate. Outside of work, you'll find me backpacking, enjoying live bluegrass music, traveling, and exploring wineries with friends.
