I’ve spent 25+ years operating and investing in residential real estate, managing multifamily assets, renovations, and leasing across the Bay Area and Hawaii. I operate real estate like a business — not a passive investment. My focus has been on improving how properties perform over time — from day-to-day operations to long-term asset decisions. Key areas of experience: • Managing portfolios of 30+ residential units • Increasing rental income from ~$11K/month to ~$32K/month through renovations and operational improvements • Co-leading redevelopment of a 16-unit multifamily property to significantly increase rental income and asset value • Managing tenants, leasing, and operational execution across multiple properties • Coordinating contractors, renovations, and capital projects • Navigating permitting, inspections, refinancing, and legal matters I’ve learned that most real estate problems aren’t about the asset — they’re about how it’s operated. I’m currently focused on opportunities in: • Property Management • Real Estate Operations • Asset / Portfolio Management Open to working with teams that actively operate assets and value execution, systems, and long-term performance.
