What was the first thing you wrote on your to-do list for today?:
Pilates/workout! Focused mind, strong body kind heart.
What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever been given?:
Be kind. People don’t remember what you say but they never forget how you make them feel!
What is your favorite part about working in real estate in this part of the world?:
The support! Coming over from Century 21 I thought I was supported, now I realize there is a big difference between seeing support and actually feeling supported!
Tell us about a recent challenge you came upon and how you conquered it.:
Finding affordable Homeowners Insurance in CA is a problem. However, despite this everyone I have had the privilege to represent has been assisted by me to receive a reasonable affordable premium. I’m proud to work with an amazing team of preferred vendors that ROCK!
What role has mentorship played in your career?:
I started in Real Estate in 2003. Brian Buffini was my favorite mentor. He helped me conquer my fears and change my mindset. We can have blocks in our minds that separate us from being on for success. He got to my heart and mind! He helped me accomplish the things I was holding back doing that ultimately separated me from accomplishing my goals. I couldn’t crack selling more than 6 million in Real Estate between 2004-2011 after my time with Brian I closed 11 million in 2012 Since then it’s been up up up and away!
What’s your favorite home design feature that you wish more homes had?:
Large kitchens and great rooms with big windows overlooking an outdoor entertaining space.
If you could have dinner with anyone, dead or alive, who would you choose and why?:
Dale Carnegie. Such an amazing man who used faith to mold minds to think bigger than themselves. To focus on creating relationships based on there is more happiness in giving than receiving. Kindness honesty and integrity were at the core of his books, lectures, and mentorship. Our relationships are the single most important thing to create happiness in our lives.
Someone is coming to visit Sonoma/Napa/Mendocino/Lake/SF County. Where should they go first?:
Our Gorgeous Lake, our amazing wineries, and our stunning state parks. Clean air, outdoor adventure great wines.
What’s something you’re looking forward to in the upcoming year? (Wedding, vacation, new opportunity, etc.):
My husband and I just celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary by going on a month-long tour of Spain, France, Italy, and Greece. In 2025 we’re sticking close to home and have some exciting house projects to work on. Our Carnegie time with our kids, grandkids, family, and friends is our joy!
