DEFINING A TOP LUXURY REAL ESTATE AGENT
KNOWLEDGE + KNOW HOW = POWER!

Michelle’s 22 Years of Experience in Marin County and the World Class Napa/Sonoma Wine Country real
estate market means you benefit through guidance from one of the Bay Area’s most experienced agents

Michelle has represented and gained the trust of clients and top executives from nearly every category of business: Google, Nvidia, Bank of America Securities, McKinsey & Co., Citigroup Global Markets, Price Waterhouse Coopers, Pillsbury, Winthrop & Partners LLP, RBC Wealth Management, KPIX-Channel 5, Microsoft, Presidio Trust, Finestone Richter LLP, The Gap, Nextdoor, Pottery Barn and other significant institutions.

Marin County is a place of extraordinary beauty, resources, and quality of life located at the door of a world class, culturally alive, and strategically important US city. Now in 2023 with the shortest commutes to San Francisco city center, and for the easy accommodation of the “work from home” lifestyle, demand to live or invest in Marin County has heightened. As a result, a more refined understanding of the real estate market has become priceless. Strategy is essential for success in the current marketplace.
