Encircle Founder, Senior Real Estate Specialist, Associate Broker
I am a trained Senior Real Estate Specialist® (SRES) and I’ve been passionate about real estate since before I was old enough to sell a home! I started my career in 2001 as a Realtor and associate broker in the East Bay, where I have strong industry relationships, marketing expertise, and negotiation skills.I grew up loving the grandparents and other seniors in my life. As a second-grader in Moraga, I would hop on my bike and head for the senior home down the street, where I’d play bingo with residents, listen to their stories, admire one woman’s miniature doll collection, and be captivated by another’s vintage photos from her days as a film starlet. (Ask me about my encounter with the original Jane from “Tarzan”!)
My ah-ha moment, when I decided to create Encircle, hit me when I helped my Grandma Penny sell her house and move into graduated senior living. It was a big job and she couldn’t have done it alone. I realized there are so many more older people who need our help and expertise!
Treasured keepsake from an elder: Grandma Penny’s handwritten cards and watercolor paintings.
What I hope to be doing when I’m 80: Exactly what I’m doing right now – helping other people. I really love what I do! Also, I’ll be loving on my grandchildren, of course.
