About
Professional Summary
As Vice Chairman in Colliers’ Oakland office, my brokerage practice specializes in the sales and leasing of industrial products along the I-880 & I-80 corridors as well as the Central Valley, primarily at the institutional and corporate level.
Having worked in the industrial sector for 30 years, I have been involved in more than $6 billion in real estate transactions, and I believe the breadth of my experience serves my clients in valuable ways. I work diligently to bring a level of excellence and responsiveness to every aspect of my brokerage service. I deeply value the long-standing client relationships I have developed over the years in the business, and get great satisfaction from being included as a valuable contributor to their team.
This is a dynamic and interesting time for Bay Area industrial real estate. The emerging e-commerce industry and the level of demand for space has transformed the landscape of the business. As the Oakland Industrial Team leader, I often collaborate with many exceptional colleagues here in Northern California as well as in other national organizations such as The Society of Industrial and Office Realtors (SIOR) and our National Logistics and Transportation Group.
Prior to joining Colliers in 1998, I worked at Cushman and Wakefield in Oakland. In my free time, I enjoy golf, travel, yoga, swimming, and spending time with family and friends. I am happy to support a number of important non-profit organizations including Aim High, Northern Lights School, U.C. Berkeley, and The First Tee of the East Bay.
