Ken’s superpower is swiftly understanding and relating to his clients’ home and investment must-haves and needs, helping them pinpoint motivations and being steps ahead of the competition. Just ask him about the "action price".

After first-hand experiencing how hard it was for friends and family alike to find a Real Estate Agent that was a true partner who understood their needs, Ken brought his 20 years in global marketing, business, strategy, athlete / entertainment partnerships, and technology to provide a welcoming and rest easy approach to home buying and selling.
He is very personable, builds confident relationships and ensures his clients are represented and led with the finest caliber of diligence and professionalism to round out perspective and close deals.

While not originally from the Bay, this is his 16th year here - previously, NYC, LA and OC, the Midwest, Asia and originally from Toronto Canada.
Coupled with his past life in global advertising and marketing / sports and entertainment and contracts attorney, he's local anywhere.
And because he's moved around, he's always purposefully sought out and discovered neighborhoods and places of interest, whether its walking around aimlessly for 3 hours organically looking for a dinner spot, or just targeted search and find.
He's lived there, so he can help you find it here.
Ken brings hyper local insight across San Francisco and all the distinct cities and neighborhoods of the San Francisco Peninsula, which is a 3 mile wide x 30 mile long region, just south of San Francisco and north of San Jose.
He is a dedicated family man, proudly married with 2 daughters, 2 cats and 1 dog. Also a passionate sportsman, especially baseball, padel and golf, and enjoys the sun every moment he can find.
