Bio
I am a 30 year real estate veteran and a Monterey Bay area native with deep roots and life-long connections. I obtained my real estate license in 1994 and have held many sales positions over the years. Most recently, as Vice President and Managing Officer for Intero at their Carmel and Pacific Grove locations. Prior to that I was a Sales Manager and trainer for a new home builder in Marina, Ca., selling over 400 homes over a span of 5 years. But as I have done throughout my career, I took on more responsibilities. In addition to management and sales duties, I provided support, mentorship and training for sales teams. Prior to New homes sales, I held a sales associate position with The Ryness Group, one of the largest new home marketing organizations in the nation. Consistently selling homes in Gilroy and the greater Bay Area. During my successful career, I centered on team building, training, company growth, restructuring and providing the best mentorship possible. A few of the helpful activities that have supported these efforts included taking on the role of Co-Chair of Programs and Education for the Women’s Council of Realtor’s Santa Cruz in 2009. At that time I also certified as an Emergency Medical Technician in 1999 for both Monterey and Santa Clara Counties. I was a guest speaker to hundreds of local agents and brokers throughout the region. In support of my standing in the real estate community, I am a current member of the California Association of Realtors, National Association of Realtors, and Monterey County Association of Realtors. I currently hold the position of Chief Operating Officer for Wayland Properties, Inc. and continue to train, grow, mentor, provide operational support and guidance as well as represent sellers and buyers in Monterey County. Our office also manages over 100 rentals in and around Monterey County and Plumas Counties.
