Meet James
A Ventura County resident since 1983, I bring decades of real estate expertise and more than 22 years of Harbor Patrol Officer service to every client I represent. Having grown up both dockside along the Ventura coast and inland in Westlake Village, I offer a rare, firsthand understanding of the lifestyle, nuances, and market dynamics across our coastal and inland communities. My lifelong connection to this area allows me to guide buyers and sellers with clarity, confidence, and a level of insight seldom found in the industry.
As a proud agent with Corcoran Icon Properties, part of the renowned Corcoran network founded by Barbara Corcoran, I offer my clients access to one of the most influential luxury brokerages in the nation. With a powerful presence in high-end markets such as New York, San Francisco, Miami, and the Hamptons, our brand delivers unmatched exposure, marketing reach, and credibility—an advantage that directly benefits clients who own or are seeking homes along the Southern California coastline and in Westlake Village.
I specialize in two lifestyle-driven markets my clients often move between: the prestigious estates of Westlake Village and the premier waterfront communities of Mandalay Bay and the Ventura Keys. Many of my clients maintain both coastal and inland residences, vacation homes, or properties that support boating, commuting, or elevated lifestyle needs—and I cater to these transitions effortlessly.
With a background that includes estate management, aviation environments, exotic vehicle handling, and luxury yacht operations, I understand the details that matter to high-end clientele. From dock configuration and fairway access to garage requirements for specialty cars and property features suited to upscale living, I offer guidance that goes far beyond traditional real estate representation.
My 22-year Harbor Patrol Officer career honed abilities that directly serve my clients today—strategic negotiation, calm decision-making under pressure, precision communication, and unwavering advocacy. Whether navigating a complex waterfront transaction or securing the best possible outcome for a luxury estate, I operate with professionalism, discretion, and commitment.
I’ve called Ventura County home for over 40 years, and it’s a privilege to help clients experience the best of Westlake Village, Mandalay Bay, and the Ventura Keys. My work is more than real estate—it’s a continuation of my lifelong dedication to the community, lifestyle, and coastline I know so well.
