Born and raised in Silicon Valley, I bring deep local insight and decades of professional experience to help clients make confident real estate decisions.
After a 30+ year career in high tech, I transitioned my understanding of the region and its people into a successful career as a Realtor® with Compass in San Jose, CA — serving clients throughout Santa Clara County and the greater Silicon Valley area.
I specialize in working with seniors, trustees, and first-time home buyers, guiding them through complex real estate transitions with patience, clarity, and care. As a Seniors Real Estate Specialist® (SRES®), I focus on trust and estate home sales, and help older adults plan smooth, respectful transitions from longtime family homes.
With 64 transactions completed, I have built a reputation for professionalism, communication, and results — reflected in my client reviews, with all reviewers posting exceptional ratings with additional testimony emphasizing my expertise & dedication. Recognition as a Top 5% Producer in 2022 and 2023, and Top 10% Producer in 2024, by the Santa Clara County Association of REALTORS®.
Whether you’re selling a family home, managing an inherited property, or buying your first home in San Jose or Silicon Valley, I combine local knowledge, trusted resources, and Compass technology to deliver a seamless real estate experience.
My goal is simple: that my clients become clients for life.

Silicon Valley is my home. I attended kindergarten through high school, playing baseball and running track, and graduating from SJSU with a BA in Mathematics.
I began my career in high tech (Hp, SGI, Dell, etc.), met my wife, and together raised two children, before building my real estate practice. Our family lived in Santa Clara and West San Jose before landing in Almaden Valley, where we live today. From busy freeways and scenic drives to the coast to cold ballgames at Candlestick, then slightly warmer games at Oracle Park, to hiking Quicksilver Trails and boating in Calero, and the variety of great restaurants and activities, are all a small part of the life I have grown to love here in the Bay Area.
Let me help you understand what it means to buy and sell in the different cities, towns, districts, and communities that make up the Valley!
For those who are seeking something new outside the Bay Area, check out where some of my clients are calling home now.
Cycling, hiking, and biking, the Almaden Valley offers so many ways to enjoy the outdoors! Moving to Almaden Valley with my family in 1998 gave me the opportunity to know an incredibly friendly community with great schools and peaceful neighborhoods.

Living with my grandmother on Glen Una, my brother and I played on the tree-lined streets of Willow Glen until dusk. Lemon trees with lights, little league at Willow Street Park, raviolis from LaVillas, and attending Willow Glen Elementary are my early memories of the tight-knit community that makes up Willow Glen. Neighborhoods mixed with bungalow, craftsman, sprawling ranch homes, and Victorians that together are as charming as they are diverse make Willow Glen a sought-after community for homebuyers. With a downtown that is the heart of it, life here in Willow Glen is charming.

Call me anytime to schedule a meeting at the Compass Office in the heart of Downtown Willow Glen at 1133 Minnesota Ave.
I provide my clients with the precision gained when earning my degree in mathematics, and marketing and sales experience from my 25 years in the tech industry, and pledge that my clients will receive my personal attention from the beginning of the search or listing to the final closing. I look forward to representing you!
