    My Background:
    Born and raised in the Bay Area, I spent 11 years in Startup Technology Sales before becoming a full-time Realtor. Having personally invested and done renovations in the Bay Area, I wanted to help busy colleagues in the Bay Area technology industry find their dream home by leveraging tech, data and insights. I specialize in educating my clients on the process of buying, selling, and investing in the Bay Area. I helped 64 families find homes in 2021 ($80MM in transactions) and have helped 48 as of halfway through 2022, which positions me as a Top 1% Realtor in the area.
    Looking forward to helping you into your next home and save/earn you more money!

    Aragon High School highly rated? When I went there in the early 80's, we had a smoking section. An open campus to come and go as we wanted. The Preppies from Hillsborough drove to school in their white VW Cabriolets, the Stoners made pipes in woodshop, the Cholos from Barrio Shoreview were fixing their lowriders at the auto shop class, the Nerds from the Highlands were building computers, and the Pacific Islanders from South Norfolk on the football team won the championship. Sadly, many of my classmates moved away because they were priced out by tech transplants. It was more economically diverse, blue collar and interesting back then.

    I grew up in San Mateo. It's far too crowded and expensive now. I wouldn't recommend living in the Bay Area at all.

      On the plus side, the crime rate in San Mateo is much lower than San Jose and San Francisco. Also it’s easier to find parking to dine in downtown San Mateo.

Lmao it didn't used to look like that it was ghetto.. go look at aragon back in 1998. Lmao real san mateo..

      The city was much different 20 years ago as far as diversity in population and housing developments. Many apartment buildings and complexes have been built in comparison to new homes. When I am in the area I drive thru to see what new developments there are. With this migrant influx I'm curious what it will look like in five to ten years. I was hoping, he were going to mentioned its proximity to Half Moon Bay. Strategically, San Mateo can be a great place to reside. Just depends on your proximity to palm colored people. It has always been that way in San Mateo. I just wasn't equipped with the skills to identify that when I was growing up there.
