About Erica

CA DRE# 02146548
The Grubb Co Inc | CA DRE# 01170009

I’m an East Bay Realtor with a deep understanding of the neighborhoods and communities that make this area such a special place to live. Whether you’re buying or selling, I help you understand how location, condition, design, demand, and market dynamics all come together to shape value—and find the right strategy for your goals, lifestyle, and budget.

Before real estate, I worked as a civil engineer, which means I naturally bring an analytical, detail-oriented approach to every transaction. I’m hands-on, responsive, organized, and a straight shooter, whether I’m evaluating a property, reviewing disclosures, preparing a home for market, or negotiating on your behalf. I also genuinely love homes—the architecture, the design, the potential, and the way the right home can support the life you want to live.

Whether you’re looking for the right place to call home, considering a move, or preparing to sell, I’d love to help you figure out what comes next.
