REALTOR ASSOCIATE®

TELL US ABOUT YOUR JOURNEY TO REAL ESTATE. 

My wife and I recently bought a home and had a great experience with our realtor. However, throughout the process, I couldn’t help but feel like I wanted to be in the agent’s seat—to negotiate and see the transaction through. This, along with my interest in real estate investing, compelled me to get my own license.

 

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN IN THE REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY?

I’ve worked in real estate-adjacent industries, such as construction, engineering consulting, and contech/proptech startups, throughout my career. I've been active in this space since 2014.

 

WHICH AREAS DO YOU FOCUS ON?

I love working with first-time homebuyers and investors. Ask me about single-family residential and multi-family properties.

 

WHAT MOST EXCITES YOU ABOUT YOUR WORK?

I get excited when I can approach real estate through a creative lens, whether that’s with financing or helping clients find properties they can transform into their dream homes.

 

WHY CHOOSE YOU VS. ANOTHER AGENT? WHAT DO YOU OFFER THAT OTHER AGENTS DON'T?

I only put in offers my clients feel 100% comfortable with, both in terms of price and frequency. I understand that most people are busy, so I’m available evenings and weekends. Whether you have 1 hour or 10 per week to dedicate to home buying, I’ll make sure our time together is productive.

 

DESCRIBE YOUR INVOLVEMENT WITH ANY ORGANIZATIONS, CLUBS, GROUPS, ETC.

I am a member of SPIRE, Stanford’s largest alumni association, which includes members with careers in placemaking and the broader built environment. I’m also a member of the Urban Land Institute (ULI), the largest network of cross-disciplinary real estate and land use experts worldwide. Through ULI, I am a 2024/25 cohort member of the Development 360 Program, a professional development program providing an overview of the real estate development process.

 

WHERE HAVE YOU LIVED? AND WHERE DO YOU LIVE NOW? WHERE DID YOU GO TO SCHOOL/COLLEGE AND WHAT DID YOU STUDY? DO YOU SPEAK/READ/WRITE A SECONDARY LANGUAGE?

I moved to the Bay Area in 2019 to start my career in consulting. I later moved to working at startups focusing on the construction and real estate space. I decided to step away from work and pursue graduate studies full-time. I got my degree at Stanford in Sustainable Design and Construction.

I’ve lived all over the Bay, including San Francisco, Palo Alto, Livermore, and Los Gatos, which is where I currently reside.

 

WHAT DO YOU LOOK FOR IN A NEIGHBORHOOD?

Whether I am choosing to invest or helping a client, my criteria for a good neighborhood is the same. I look for great schools, constrained supply, walkability, and a growing population.
 

WHAT BAY AREA CITY WOULD YOU LIKE TO LIVE IN AND WHY?

Pacifica! Pacifica is “affordable,” surrounded by beautiful seascape, and has access to both the North and South Bay.

 

WHERE CAN WE FIND YOU WHEN YOU'RE NOT WORKING?

You can find me at San Jose Astronomical Association (SJAA) meetings, at the gym, or my boxing club!

 

WHAT IS ONE OF YOUR DREAM VACATIONS?

Spending several months in one place to really learn the culture and live like a local as much as I can.

 

WHAT WOULD YOU SAY TO A 5-YEAR-OLD CHILD IF HE OR SHE ASKED YOU WHAT THE PURPOSE OF LIFE IS?

To find meaning in everything you do.

 

WHAT IS THE STRANGEST ACTIVITY ON YOUR BUCKET LIST?

Spend the night in a haunted mansion!
