I am a member of (LAI) Lambda Alpha International, Sacramento Sutter Club and ACRE. I recently received the Russ Thompson Award, the highest honor bestowed by Newmark, in recognition of my leadership and consistent success in pursuit of the firm’s best practices. From 2000 through 2016, I was nominated annually for the Association of Commercial Real Estate’s (ACRE’s) Broker of the Year award, and was named Office Broker of the Year in 2013.  Additionally, I was a guest panel speaker at both the Sacramento Association of REALTORS® 2013 and 2014 and ACRE’s 2014 mid-year market update. As a guest panel speaker for NAIOP, I presented the 1998 recap and 1999 projections for the office and high-tech sectors of the Sacramento regional marketplace.  Over the last three decades, I have represented clients such as MLIC, KBS Investment, Pappas Investments, Twin Trees, Metzler, Opus Development, Aerojet/Gencorp Company, All-Data/AutoZone, Inc., Baxter Health Care, CNA Insurance, Coopers & Lybrand, Downey Brand, Monsanto Company, New York Life Insurance, Physician’s Clinical Laboratory, Inc., the State of California, TASQ Technologies, and The Gap and Williams Sonoma Internet Centers.
