I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving filled with good food, laughter, and a whole lot to be grateful for. As I write this lighter edition of the newsletter on Wednesday, the day before Thanksgiving, I find myself reflecting on just how thankful I am for each and every one of you. This newsletter has become the envy of real estate agents across the country, but truly, it’s because of you—the readers who take the time to join me here each week. Your support makes it all worthwhile, and for that, I am incredibly grateful.

Die Hard is a Christmas Movie!
Die Hard, the action-packed film starring Bruce Willis as John McClane, is often debated as to whether it belongs in the Christmas movie category.

I grew up in Fresno. Relaxed in its calm breezes, listened with my dad to the crack of the bat at little league baseball games when I was a kid and now take my son to do the same at minor league games. I broadened my mind at its schools (I went to high school right here at San Joaquin Memorial, and to college at Fresno State!) I love that if I drive for two hours in one direction, I can be in the mountains. For two hours in another, luxuriating on a California beach. I can enjoy the cosmopolitan atmosphere of San Francisco or Los Angeles, but still be able to come home to relaxation, calm, and quiet.
I love where I live, and I also love what I do. I'm lucky to be able to work in a profession in which I get to build relationships; one that has me meeting new people each and every day and helping them to build new lives in my beloved city. I'm lucky enough to work in a profession in which I can marry cutting-edge technologies and marketing techniques to good, old-fashioned, nose-to-the-grindstone work. I am lucky enough to work in a profession that allows me to work as an advocate for my clients; to use every tool at my disposal to get a job done well for them, and with as little stress and expense as possible.
I love my city. I love my job. One inspires my excellence for the other.
