About
My Role:
I show real estate people how to make the web and technology work for them.
How to Describe Me:
> 14 Years of Real Estate Industry Experience – Highlights include:
Sales: Realtor with participation in 40 transactions over 3 years totaling $40M+ in gross sales. Launched CoastalOCLivingBlog.com to incorporate web 2.0 tools into my sales business.
Technology: Director of IT for Strada Properties, the leading real estate brokerage in Newport Beach that was acquired by Coldwell Banker (NRT) in 2003.
Operations: Management team member helping run the day-to-day internal operations, as well as the expansion of Strada Properties. Also a member of the executive management team for Coldwell Banker Orange County from 2003-2005.
Marketing: With an eye for aesthetics, I’m fortunate to have worked for luxury real estate brokerages that have truly set the bar for real estate marketing. I was also part of the management team that created and facilitated the brand transition of Strada Properties and Coldwell Banker to Coldwell Banker Previews in the Orange County marketplace.
Transaction Coordinating: Founded Bamboo TC in 2007, a company assisting Realtors organize and manage their transactions and paperwork.
Training: Taught Realtors through a weekly “Tech Tip” program educating them on technology tools to help their business.
> Ahead of the Curve – I’m definitely an early adopter (do you know a lot of other people with this kind of site?). I’m often the one who introduces my colleagues and friends to things that they have never heard of before and which eventually become mainstream.
> Curious – All kinds of things peak my interest…particularly in the technology realm.
> Interested – Tell me more about that!
> Educated – I value education and strive to constantly learn. My formal education includes an BS in Communications and MBA with an emphasis on Information Technology.
> Effective Project Manager - I get things done. I also have a keen eye for the details and have the ability to keep multiple balls in the air while having a grasp on the big picture and the ever changing landscape.
