ABOUT MICHELLE

Native to Southern California, Michelle graduated from UCLA with a degree in Business/Economics. After college, Michelle earned her law degree from Chapman University School of Law, whilst graduating top five in her class. It didn’t stop there – Michelle then went back to school and completed a Master of Laws in Taxation (LL.M) and became a legal specialist on the topic. Michelle was offered jobs on the East Coast, but as we all know, once you fall in love with the California lifestyle, you never want to leave. After nearly eight years of working for two large law firms, and subsequently owning her own her own successful Estate Planning practice in San Clemente, Michelle departed from her highly rewarding and high-profile position and turned her full attention to Real Estate. This transition was natural. Michelle is able to use her legal and technical background rich in contract negotiation, analytics, marketing, and communication to offer solid, experience-based business acumen and highly tailored counseling and professionalism to her clients and their unique, individual needs.

WHAT MAKES MICHELLE UNIQUE

What differentiates Michelle from most other agents is her extensive experience and skillset as an attorney. She has a unique understanding of contracts, marketing, negotiation, communication, analytics of the market itself, and an unyielding commitment to the specific needs of her clients. As a San Clemente resident for over 15 years, Michelle has become a well-respected Realtor who brings an in-depth knowledge of the area, its services, neighborhoods, schools, and its people. Driven by her integrity and enthusiasm, she repeatedly delivers concierge level service and strives to continuously build a referral-based portfolio of loyal clients.

MICHELLE’S MISSION

Michelle’s journey as a Realtor was founded upon a vision of excellence, which drives her relentless effort to redefine the real estate experience. Michelle is and always will be the primary point of contact throughout each stage of the transaction. She has developed a highly effective administrative and marketing support team that enables her to focus on what ultimately matters most: guiding her clients through the various stages of buying or selling their home or investment property. Michelle’s mission is to provide her clients with a hands-on approach to real estate, not just as a Realtor, but as a confidant to whom clients can turn with any questions or concerns, whether real estate related or not. She holds herself to the highest standard of excellence to exceed her clients’ expectations at every opportunity with on-going and consistent communication, availability, and accountability. Michelle is a wife, a mother to two amazing young boys, a daughter, a sister, and a friend. When Michelle is not working, she is likely shuttling her two boys to water polo practice and games. Her hobbies include hiking with her two dogs (a Ridgeback and a Boxer), paddle boarding, going to the beach with her family, and cooking. As an added bonus, Michelle is fluent in Spanish. Michelle is a member of the National Association of Realtors, the California Association of Realtors, Orange County Association of Realtors, and the California Regional Multiple Listing Service.
