Buying or selling a home often means a major life change, and I feel privileged to serve my clients in this process. As your agent, I will dedicate myself to making your home buying or selling experience worry-free.

My educational background includes a Bachelor's degree in music, and a master's degree in computer science. In real estate, I get to use the creative and intuitive skills I developed in music school, as well as the analytical skills I learned in the high-tech world. I will use these skills to stay focused on your needs and to get you the best results possible.

I'm proud to say that my success in real estate is evidenced by several awards I've received in recent years:

- Coldwell Banker International Sterling Society 2005 and 2006 - Coldwell Banker International President's Elite 2007
- Coldwell Banker International Diamond Society in 2008, 2009, and 2010

These awards are granted to the top producers in Coldwell Banker worldwide.

I've lived many places across the U.S. and settled in Santa Cruz in the year 2000 with my partner. This area of California is a beautiful and fantastic place to call home. I love it here.

Call me today.

    As a first time home buyer, I cannot begin to adequately express my deep appreciation and gratitude for all that Michael did to help me get through a grueling house-buying process. My short sale purchase took almost a year to close but Michael was with me every step of the way! Michael is the consummate real estate professional. His level of expertise, knowledge and dedication is top notch, but I was also continually grateful for his warmth and heartfelt friendship during those moments when I got discouraged.

    There are so many other great things I could say about Michael but the best way to put it is – I have and will always recommend Michael to all of my family and friends because he is the best. No doubt about it!

    I've bought and sold several houses, but have not been represented by anyone better than Michael. He was extremely attentive to all our needs, and made a complicated transaction come to fruition. we are happy in our new house thanks to Michael!
