I lead Coldwell Banker San Francisco, a 200 plus agent organization producing more than $1 billion in annual sales across luxury residential, investment property, and commercial real estate. My role is operational. I build the structure, protection, and market leverage that allow high performing agents to focus on production.

For more than 25 years, I have worked inside growth environments ranging from new agent development to seven figure producer expansion. I have led organizations across 11 states and supported more than 1,600 agents. Today my focus is San Francisco, where complexity, liability exposure, and competitive pressure require a disciplined operating model rather than generic brokerage support.

Clarity. Defined operating strategy aligned to an agent’s production level and business goals.
Protection. Active involvement in contracts, negotiations, and risk management with direct access to leadership and legal resources.
Capacity. Infrastructure that allows producers to expand business without adding operational drag.

As a licensed broker, I work directly inside the transaction pipeline, advising on structure, compliance, negotiations, and conflict resolution across the San Francisco operation. I collaborate with in house counsel and participate in mediation and litigation matters to safeguard our agents and their businesses.

This is a performance driven environment designed for professionals who treat real estate as a business, not an activity.

If you are evaluating alignment, conversations are handled confidentially and strategically.
