    I came to residential Real Estate Sales a little differently than most. I began working as an International Relocation Specialist, serving clients from Germany, France, Brazil and Panama who were temporarily relocating to the Sacramento area for their job. Having been a resident of Sacramento since 1980, educating my clients about our area came naturally. An important aspect of International Relocations is finding a home in an area that suits my client’s lifestyle, commute, and their family’s education needs. Given that English was always a second language for my clients, I also assisted them in finding the right grocery store, pharmacy, doctor, dentist, etc. This experience has prepared me for being a Residential Realtor!Working with my Real Estate Clients means more than just finding a house in their price range… it is also important that my clients understand all the aspects of the neighborhood they are preparing to live in. The quality of the schools, if they have children, types of restaurants for the foodie, the closest park to walk their dog… access to the bike trail or the river… whatever they need ~ I want them to be fully informed.I spent my youth in the San Francisco Bay Area and moved to Sacramento after graduating from San Jose State University. From the age of eleven until I was 25, I was a Nationally competitive Water Skier. I was Open Women’s National Slalom Champion and ranked 4th in world in Slalom Skiing. Maintaining integrity is essential to me while working with my clients as we put together a successful transaction. No one wants surprises at the end of Escrow! I continually communicate with my clients keeping them up to date on the progress of their sale or purchase. I look forward to working with you on achieving your dream of homeownership. All in all ~ I love living in Sacramento and assisting my clients in finding the perfect home, in the perfect location.

    This small event planning business is a great source of satisfaction for me. I work with clients who are interested in assistance with organizing events from inception, day of management, and post event evaluations.I also use my skills working with non-profits to organize fundraising events. This is particularly rewarding to me as a way of giving back to the community that supports me.

The Limited Stores, Inc. was one of the National chains that carried the suits.I retired from this business in 1988 to start a family.
