About Me 

Real Estate is in my DNA.

My grandfather built a successful property portfolio, and after I fled Nicaragua in 1980 during the civil war, I learned firsthand the stability and sense of belonging that a home provides. That experience shaped my lifelong passion for real estate, not just as a business, but as a way to create security, legacy, and opportunity.

My journey began with a love for design. In my 20s, I studied interior decorating and later managed design projects, skills I now use to help sellers elevate their home’s presentation and help buyers see potential beyond what’s visible.

Following in my grandfather’s footsteps, I became a real estate investor myself, buying, renting, and selling properties across South Florida for more than a decade. This hands-on experience gives me a deep understanding of the market from every angle as an agent, investor, and homeowner.

Today, as part of Coldwell Banker Realty, I combine my personal expertise with one of the most powerful networks in real estate. Coldwell Banker’s global reach, luxury marketing platform, and cutting-edge technology allow me to position each listing with maximum visibility locally, nationally, and internationally. My clients benefit from strategic marketing exposure, professional presentation, and data-driven insights that help them achieve the strongest results.

Having lived in Miami, raised my daughter in Weston, and now calling Parkland home, I bring a true local’s perspective — especially in Weston and Parkland. My clients appreciate my high-touch service, negotiation skill, and ability to blend local insight with global resources.

Whether you’re buying, selling, or investing, I’ll help you make your next move with precision, confidence, and the backing of one of the most trusted names in real estate, Coldwell Banker Realty.
