   Dec 2015 — Present · Newport Beach, CA, US

   Licensed in CA in 1987, I closed 176 Real Estate sales in my first year, and 4 years later, opened 3 CENTURY-21 offices, recruiting and mentoring more than 500 agents. I was one of only 25 Real Estate agents featured in the book ‘Billion Dollar Agent–Lessons Learned’ (Steve Kantor).I sold my franchises and joined RE/MAX. In 2005, I earned a Lifetime Achievement Award, ranking #1 in CA,#11 in the USA, and #14 amongst the RE/MAX agents worldwide.Steve Jobs said, “You can’t connect the dots forward; you can only connect them backward.” I disagree. You can connect the dots forward, but you must collect the dots first!The dots are our values, skills, talents, lessons learned and hard-won knowledge. We need to leverage, especially when serving the luxury real estate market. We all have unique experiences, expertise, and epiphanies. These are the ‘dots’ that we can connect forward to a customized ‘next’ step that leverages who we are at our core.I help successful agents make informed moves that lead them to aligned results—results that help them reach financial goals, achieve the lifestyle they want, and achieve meaningful success in all areas of their lives—not just their careers.My best strength is my ability to connect with people. While luxury real estate is often conducted in affluent social circles, it must be done carefully to avoid being “salesy.” Nurturing high-quality relationships is the only way to build trust and uncover opportunities.Despite changing economic tides, the demand for luxury properties remains steadfast. I counsel successful agents invested in learning and growing to step up and secure their status as a leader in the luxury marketplace. I can help you to connect the dots for a prosperous career as a luxury property professional.
