Being passionate about helping people, it was only natural for me to choose to combine my technology background and experience with Real Estate.I am a 16-year real estate professional who has personally assisted over 110 buyers and sellers, navigate the complexities of the home sale process using my unique experience in business and education. I live in Fremont, CA and serve my clients in the southern part of Alameda County, as well as the Silicon Valley and Santa Clara County. I look at my relationship with my clients, and the transaction, from a different perspective. It is about being skilled, yet also available at all times, even long after the transaction has closed. I got my feet wet very quickly as a Transaction Coordinator in 2005 for over 40 real estate professionals. I moved into the full-time real estate role in 2007. Prior to that, I earned my MBA in Information Technology from Cal State East Bay. I fluently speak, read, and write English, French, Arabic and German.In the last 16 years, I have sold over $120 million in homes and negotiated over 110 transactions. Additionally, the homes I market for sellers are selling 1% faster and homes I negotiate on for buyers are selling for 2% lower, saving my clients on average over $18,000 by working with me.My Maximum Exposure Marketing Strategy creates exceptional online exposure for selling your home, focused on finding the perfect potential buyer. My Comprehensive Buyer Program ensures that my buyers will see every available home on the market that fits their unique needs and wish list, whether it is listed or not.When I am not serving clients or working on my real estate business, I especially love spending time with my husband of 35 years, our children and their wonderful spouses, our adorable and adoring 6-year-old grandson Kayden, and of course our Bernese Mountain Dog, Duke. I am passionate about dogs, and I love to travel, cook and bake. In cooking, I specialize in authentic Lebanese cuisine, my country of origin but love experimenting with other international dishes as well. My friends and family say that I make the most delicious leg of lamb, Seafood Paella, and the best authentic hummus.It will be my privilege to serve you, and walk along with you on this journey called Real Estate!
