I have lived and worked in the Bay Area of California since 1975. After selling real estate in Illinois (approx. 5 years), I moved to CA, worked in sales and management for Coldwell Banker for 20 years. Needing the freedom to make more individual choices for myself as an agent, I joined RE/MAX Associates, San Jose, in 1997. In 2002 I moved to Brentwood and joined RE/MAX Assoc. team (same broker) in Brentwood. With 38 plus years in the real estate business, I have consistently been one of the top agents. • COLDWELL BANKER: Top Ten Area Sales Associates...Office Manager...Listing Leader Awards… Production Leader Awards...Gold Circle Club...President’s Elite Club • RE/MAX: Presidents Club...100% Club. June of 2009, RE/MAX Assoc. elected not to renew their franchise with RE/MAX. Under new ownership, we have now joined the ALTERA Real Estate franchise, which was started by former RE/MAX brokers, we are: ALTERA Signature Properties. Address & phone numbers are the same. Then April 1, 2013, we became COLDWELL BANKER Guidance Realty. My 40 years+ as a full time REALTOR® is a plus for my clients. I have been through many highs and lows in this business. I enjoy painting, good books, the ocean, lakes, rivers, baiting my own hook, and love trips by land or sea.
