About Me

Real estate decisions are among the biggest you’ll make—and my role is to ensure the process is clear, smooth, and aligned with your vision every step of the way. I bring over 25 years of real-world problem solving and a background in engineering, business, and construction to help buyers and sellers move confidently through their transactions.

With master’s degrees in Mechanical Engineering and Business Administration, I use both analytical insight and practical experience to help you navigate the market. I offer the tools to uncover hidden value, the systems to manage the details, and the network to get the job done right—from contract to closing and beyond.

Whether you’re purchasing your first home, upgrading your living space, or listing a beloved property, I focus on what matters most to you—your priorities, timeline, and budget. With a commitment to simplifying complexity and eliminating stress, I work to turn your real estate goals into a well-executed reality.

Why Work With Me

Integrated Expertise: I combine hands-on craftsmanship, business acumen, and technical insight to bring depth and value to your buying or selling experience. My knowledge allows me to see potential—and pitfalls—that others might miss.

Community Commitment: With 10+ years in Central Jersey, I’m deeply connected to the area’s neighborhoods, tradespeople, and rhythms. I don’t just work here—I grow food here, raise animals here, and build here. I treat every client’s goal like it’s part of building the future of our shared community.
