I have a deep passion for real estate that began in 2004. Starting as an investor, I gained valuable experience in property acquisition and management, developing a sharp eye for market trends. In 2018, I became a licensed real estate broker, allowing me to guide clients through their buying, selling, and investing journeys with confidence.

In addition to brokering, I am a licensed mortgage broker specializing in both commercial and residential financing. Since 2020, I've been dedicated to helping clients secure the best financing options tailored to their needs. My knowledge of mortgage products and market conditions ensures clients receive comprehensive guidance throughout the process.

Real estate is about building lasting relationships, not just transactions. Clients appreciate my hands-on approach, attention to detail, and commitment to their success. Whether you're a first-time homebuyer, a seasoned investor, or looking to finance a commercial property, I'm here to provide the support and expertise you need.

As a fluent Spanish speaker, I can effectively communicate with a diverse range of clients, breaking down language barriers and providing exceptional service to Spanish-speaking individuals, ensuring they feel comfortable and informed.

Outside of my professional life, I enjoy playing tennis. The discipline and strategy required on the court translate seamlessly into my real estate work, where every decision counts.

Let’s connect and explore how I can assist you in your real estate journey. Together, we can turn your dreams into reality!

Sunlight filters through the evergreens, birds move through the canopy, and the occasional deer or other wildlife passes through the shy 1.4 acres surrounding the home. It is a setting that feels removed from the pace of everything beyond it, shaped by woods, open lawn, and gardens that announce each new season. A spectacular cherry tree turns pink in early spring, followed by white blossoms, lilacs rising along the drive, and beds dense with peonies in white and shades of pink. The wraparound porch keeps it all close, offering a sheltered place outdoors even as Northwest weather moves through. Inside, wide-plank floors carry between generous living and dining spaces and a crisp kitchen centered on a broad quartz island. French doors open the dining room toward the yard, while upstairs, the primary suite stretches beneath a skylight with an oversized glass shower in the dual vanity en-suite. For all the quiet found here, the house is remarkably connected. Nearby trails lead toward Grand Ridge and Duthie Hill, Issaquah Highlands is a short drive away, and I-90 puts the greater Eastside beyond. Enough land to feel away from it all. Close enough that you never really are.
