Margaret leverages an impressive portfolio of communication and negotiation skills stemming from a career of over 10 years in global finance to facilitate transactions to earn winning results for both sellers and buyers alike. Initially starting her career in Technology Investment Banking, she has worked in both Private Equity and Venture Capital as a Senior Associate globally as well as an advisor to multiple startups.

Margaret brings her expertise to her clientele who are navigating the competitive Bay Area market, working from San Francisco, Marin, Napa Valley, East Bay as well as Silicon Valley.

She also has extensive international experience, having grown up in over 16 countries including Tajikistan, Thailand, China, Bangladesh, Uganda, Ghana, Zimbabwe, Italy and Croatia, among others. As a result, she has established strong contacts in all key global markets and can facilitate transactions not only in the San Francisco Bay Area, but anywhere in the domestic US and internationally.

Margaret holds an M.S. in Global Management, and both a  B.A. in International Relations and graduate studies in Global Nutrition Programming, with a focus on addressing malnutrition in developing countries, from Tufts University.

Outside of work, she enjoys philanthropy, in particular microfinance with a focus on children and women’s empowerment, philosophy, the visual arts and car racing. More often than not, she can be found cooking, as a classically-trained chef, having taken a brief hiatus to study at the CIA in Napa Valley.
