My passion and experience has been in all facets of farm and ranch life.  I grew up on a cattle ranch in the San Joaquin Valley before attending and graduating from the University of California at Santa Barbara.  Subsequent to working for the troubleshooting and marketing division of Pepsi Cola in Puerto Rico, I managed one of the first organic produce ranches in  Santa Barbara.  From there I moved to Ireland and took advantage of the time to travel the world and ride hunters across the countrside of that magic country.  My family has been involved in raising Thoroughbred race horses and I have competed in both cutting and team penning.  I love the land and have been selling premium properties in the Santa Ynez Valley since 1983.  I love to share with my clients, the nooks and crannies as well as majesty of this incredible area.
