Dorothy brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the realm of real estate, cultivated through a career spanning decades. Licensed since 1987, she possesses experience in virtually every type of real estate transaction imaginable. Her journey began in 1980, purchasing her first home during a challenging market marked by 18% interest rates, a period that ignited her passion for "thinking outside the box to make things happen." This ingenuity, combined with a genuine heart for service and a dedication to listening to her clients, forms the cornerstone of her approach.

A graduate of CSUS in 1985, Dorothy's commitment to real estate deepened as she married and pursued her real estate license, passing the state exam on her first attempt. She then joined a brokerage that provided invaluable training and coaching, shaping her professional trajectory. In an era before widespread technology, she honed her skills in handwritten contracts and face-to-face communication, fostering a deep respect and authentic consideration for every client. While embracing modern conveniences, she remains grateful for her foundational experiences, equipping her to navigate any transaction with confidence. Dorothy proudly maintains a closing rate of over 98% once in contract, a testament to her dedication and expertise. Her greatest joy stems from helping clients achieve their real estate goals and dreams.

Dorothy and her husband raised their two children on a 20-acre ranch in Lincoln, where they navigated the complexities of easements, water rights, home development, and acreage division. Despite a full-time career, she remained deeply involved in her children's lives, volunteering at their schools and supporting their activities. In 2017, they returned to Carmichael to care for her mother-in-law until her passing in 2020, where they continue to reside. Joining Coldwell Banker in 2019 marked a pivotal moment in her career. She values the unparalleled resources and support Coldwell Banker offers, allowing her to provide exceptional service to her clients. Dorothy considers herself fortunate to be part of a team of outstanding professionals at Coldwell Banker.
