More About Me

Master of Real Estate - measuring success by my client's satisfaction

Professional PhilosophyI measure success by client satisfaction. I treat your time and needs with the highest respect, yet pay meticulous attention to detail so that nothing is overlooked. When marketing a listing, I go by the adage that you never get second chance to make a first great impression. My listing specialty is cost-effective property preparation, compelling home presentation and online marketing. I am an experienced negotiator and adept with real estate contracts. I want to make your next real estate transaction the smoothest and most satisfying property transition of your life.

Personal BackgroundI have been an Orinda resident for more than 40 years, and I know well the rich texture of this beautiful and very special area to live. I participate in numerous community activities, and I particularly enjoy hiking and walking in our local parks with my wife Tania and our dogs.

Professional ExperienceA Coldwell Banker REALTOR since 2001, I have excelled in the sales of fine residential properties as well as vacant land. Prior to joining Coldwell Banker, I founded and was President of Syspro Corporation. I oversaw sales & marketing of Syspro's CRM software products, and acted as client manager of the consulting division. I left Syspro in 1999 to join internet startup Webvan Group as a senior internal management consultant. My 30 years of experience with high-tech sales & marketing, promotions, client relations, deal negotiation, conflict resolution, and technology have contributed very positively to my success in real estate sales.
