With gratitude.
Over 37 families trusted me with their homes this year and I’m sincerely grateful to each and every one.
This special time reminds all of us what truly matters: family, community, and the special places where we feel at home. As a lifelong Lamorinda resident, I know firsthand the incredible sense of belonging this community offers. I grew up here, graduated from our local schools, and remain deeply involved in supporting and giving back to the Lamorinda community. My roots run deep—my parents still live in Lafayette and I continue to stay connected through sports and community activities.
I’m grateful to all of my clients and this special community for enabling me to achieve 22 years as a top-producing real estate agent. It’s an honor to help others find their place in this amazing community we call home.

Live With Purpose: Remember the fallen. Honor those who serve. Teach our children the value of freedom.
On Saturday, December 14, 2024 at 8:30 AM, volunteers will lay veterans’ wreaths at more than 4,600 participating locations nationwide as well as Arlington National Cemetery just outside our nation’s Capital. These wreaths symbolize a commitment to Remember and Honor our nation’s veterans through the laying of wreaths on the graves of our country’s fallen heroes and the act of saying the name of each veteran aloud.
I will be donating a total of 50 wreaths. A few will honor my family members: Colonel Gilland Corbitt, USAF, Captain Frank McKenzie, USN, Colonel Milton Kegley, USAF, the other wreaths will honor additional fallen veterans.
Won’t you honor veterans as well, by donating a wreath? I’d appreciate you joining me!
