A little bit about me...
I get it—buying or selling a home can feel completely overwhelming. But here's what I've learned: the right home can literally change everything. That's why I'm passionate about helping families make smart moves that actually build wealth, not just check boxes. Since 2016, my approach has been simple: quality over quantity, always.
My favorite part? Seeing that moment when everything clicks for my clients—when they realize their next chapter is going to be even better than they imagined.
Your home should work as hard for your future as you do—let's make that happen.

SEASCAPE PARK you have my heart!
Arguably one of the best hidden gems of Santa Cruz County is this county owned park intertwined with the luxury Seascape resort property, with a cute playground, picnic area, restrooms and a very well kept walking trail with some of the best panoramic views of the county.

Luxury isn’t just about price tag. It’s about scarcity and desirability. In Santa Cruz County, luxury means location, views, and privacy that can’t be replicated.
Don’t look at just 2 years of data. Look at price per square foot trends over 10 years. Markets cycle, but irreplaceable features hold value.
The best RO…

Just Sold! About 3 months. From deciding to sell this home to closing day. That’s how quickly you can get moved with the right strategy!
We are celebrating both the buyer and seller today as they both enter very exciting next chapters. It’s always a joy to watch when these things fall into place seamlessly. What’s me…

Forget the inside! Do you realize how PERFECT this home is set up for birding?!
This lavish estate was a treat to tour and truly stunning inside and out… but I couldn’t get past how many species of birds were flying around and singing this morning when wandering around the grounds.
The 3,743 sqft home, guest house,…

Homes in the Santa Cruz Mountains? They teach you to see properties differently.
After years working with rural estates among the redwoods, I’ve learned that the best properties aren’t just about views and square footage—they’re about understanding your relationship with the world around you.

SEASCAPE PARK you have my heart!
Arguably one of the best hidden gems of Santa Cruz County is this county owned park intertwined with the luxury Seascape resort property, with a cute playground, picnic area, restrooms and a very well kept walking trail with some of the best panoramic views of the county.
Aside from the dramatic views, birding opportunities and eye catching flora, perhaps the best was that even on a weekend the trail just wasn’t packed. Free parking & dog friendly too!
If you’re considering relocating to Aptos or Rio Del Mar (or just need a new walking spot), this is your sign to check it out.
More on these luxury communities coming soon. I have opinions on both and you’re gonna want to hear them before you buy.
Who else is obsessed with this trail? 👀

Luxury isn’t just about price tag. It’s about scarcity and desirability. In Santa Cruz County, luxury means location, views, and privacy that can’t be replicated.
Don’t look at just 2 years of data. Look at price per square foot trends over 10 years. Markets cycle, but irreplaceable features hold value.
The best ROI? Properties with unique features that can’t be built again:
Waterfront or coastal proximity
Panoramic mountain/ocean views
Historic significance or architectural pedigree
Land that’s protected from future development
In our market, coastal proximity and tech money from Silicon Valley drive long-term appreciation. But you have to buy strategically, not emotionally.

Spotting a vulture circling above reminds me: these aren’t just homes. They’re part of larger ecosystems. Wildlife corridors. Protected watersheds. Habitat that matters.
That awareness has completely transformed how I approach real estate.
