You open the escrows. We close them. Since 1963.

With over 31 years of hands-on experience, I’m proud to bring deep knowledge, reliability, and heart to every escrow transaction. I specialize in Sale Escrows, Refinances, Short Sales, and For Sale By Owner transactions, including those handled by investors. As a Spanish-speaking Escrow Officer and Notary Public, I’m committed to making the process smooth, clear, and stress-free for all my clients—no matter their background.

What drives me is simple: I love what I do. Every transaction is more than paperwork—it’s someone’s next chapter, and I’m honored to be a trusted part of that journey.

When I’m not helping clients close with confidence, I cherish time with my family—especially making memories with my granddaughter, who keeps me smiling and grounded.
