Real estate here is hyper-local, and it moves fast. I lead the pricing strategy and the marketing plan for my clients, built on VALORO and on what I learned in marketing and research.
For sellers, that means honest pricing guidance, real marketing, and follow-up I do myself. Every inquiry about your home is filed in my CRM and I reply to it personally. For buyers, it means fast answers, local knowledge, and someone in your corner from the first tour through closing.
Italian-Brazilian by heritage and a South Bay resident for 10 years, I hold a bachelor's degree in marketing and social communication. I worked in market analysis and advertising for large companies. Then I founded a consumer research company and later sold it, and real estate came next. Today I work with Beach City Brokers.
How that background shows up for sellers
Research taught me to ask how people actually decide, and to check what I believe against data. For a seller, it shows up in three places.
Pricing. I built VALORO, my own South Bay valuation method. It starts from recent closed sales in your MLS area and property type, and I review its result after seeing your home. How VALORO works explains it in plain English, and pricing your home right explains how I use it.
Marketing. Before I plan photos, video and ads, I think about who is most likely to buy your home and where they look. How I market a home lists what that includes.
Decisions. When offers come in, I lay out the trade-offs in plain numbers, including what you would net, so you can choose with a clear head.
I'm passionate about art, community and real estate, and I treat every transaction as its own. No generic playbook, just an honest read on your situation and what it takes to get you where you're going.
I work primarily across Torrance, Redondo Beach, Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, Palos Verdes, Long Beach and the greater South Bay, with experience extending into the Westside and greater Los Angeles. Whether you're buying your first home, selling a longtime family property, or thinking about an off-market sale, I'd rather have a real conversation with you than a form to fill out. The seller process is laid out on Sell with Gabi.

If you are thinking about selling, the easiest first step is a conversation. It is a 30-minute conversation about your home, your timing and your numbers. I answer my own phone, so you can also call or text me.
