The Chicago metropolitan area is a wonderful place to live and work. There is so much variety and diversity to celebrate and so many neighborhoods to explore. I am lucky to work in a field where I meet so many people and can help them purchase or sell their home. I believe that knowledge brings options and that sharing my knowledge and experience will help you get the best possible results. I aim to be your trusted advisor, industry resource and someone you can count on to look out for your interests.
I have been a licensed Real Estate Agent since 2009.
I am a lifelong Chicago area resident with 2 children and 2 grandchildren. In the past I have worked as a jazz saxophonist, restaurant manager, data processing manager, computer salesman, and Volvo salesman. In my spare time I have played drums in community samba groups and am currently performing flute with the Thai Classical Orchestra at Wat Dhammaram Thai Buddhist Temple. I enjoy cooking Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Italian and Mexican. And I speak some Spanish and Thai.
