I have invested over 20 years growing my business exclusively through enthusiastic referrals from clients and colleagues who value my unique brand of compassionate tenacity. As a licensed and full-time professional REALTOR®, I map out strategies designed to help my clients discover the perfect spaces and negotiate the best deals for both buyers and sellers.
After spending a decade in the field, I took a leap during the tumultuous days of 2008 to become one of the founding members of the real estate brokerage Sereno Group when it opened in Los Altos. In 2023 the company evolved into Christie's International Real Estate Sereno, the No. 1 independent real estate firm in Northern California. I am proud to be a leading example of the values that have generated the company's success: local, hands-on ownership, unmatched market knowledge, a culture of service, and most importantly, a deep commitment to my clients and community.
I am committed to my work in this industry, particularly to forging strong relationships with clients, agents, and lenders as we manage high-stakes transactions, often during major life transitions. I credit my success to strong interpersonal skills and a nuanced understanding of the competitive local market. Every client has their own unique motivations, and I am dedicated to understanding their priorities and advising them through each step of the process. Integrity, commitment, and experience form the foundation of every working relationship I build. Crafting a deal that yields a win for each client is where my creativity and perseverance truly shine.
"Did you hear about the appraisal? It's $30k OVER what I paid! I'm making money the first time I turn the key. You rock! THANK YOU!" - E.J. Nham, May 2023
I am a proud member of the National Association of Realtors (NAR), California Association of Realtors (CAR), Silicon Valley Association of Realtors (SILVAR), Multiple Listing Service (MLS), as well as a Certified Negotiation Expert (CNE). All of these associations uphold a strict code of ethics and ensure that I stay up to date on the latest marketing techniques and legislation affecting real estate.
Raised in the Bay Area, I was educated in the stellar Los Altos School District and am a proud graduate of UC San Diego. In the early years, I began raising my family in the same South Los Altos neighborhood where I learned to ride my bike as a child. Over the past 20 years, I have purchased and remodeled three homes and am now working on my fourth. I've built a real estate business designed to help people create home solutions that perfectly fit their stages of life. In 2020, my three sons and I started a new chapter and moved to the beach community of Aptos.
Renovating our family home during the pandemic was everything you would imagine it to be: challenging, filled with surprises, and an infinitely satisfying experience to create spaces that worked for each of us individually and together as a whole. In between running my business and my second job as mom to two baseball MVPs and one future FIFA star, I try to enjoy the incredible outdoors as much as possible with hikes, golf, tennis, swimming, and playtime at the beach with Wrigley, our wild Labradoodle.
