I am a commercial broker specializing in restaurant sales and leasing, working exclusively with food and beverage businesses across Arizona. My practice is built around helping restaurant owners, chefs, operators, and investors navigate one of the most complex segments of commercial real estate with clarity and confidence.
Restaurants are not just real estate — they are operating businesses. Because of that, my approach goes beyond square footage and rent numbers. I focus on understanding the full picture: location dynamics, kitchen infrastructure, equipment value, lease structure, brand potential, and operational flow. This allows me to better match buyers with the right opportunities and position sellers for successful, confidential exits.
On the sales side, I represent owners of restaurants, bars, cafés, boba shops, dessert concepts, and specialty food businesses. I assist with pricing strategy, market positioning, buyer qualification, negotiations, and coordination through escrow. Confidentiality is always a priority, and listings are marketed carefully to protect staff, customers, and ongoing operations.
On the leasing side, I represent tenants seeking restaurant spaces — from first-time operators to experienced multi-unit owners. I work with second-generation restaurant spaces, new developments, drive-thru sites, end caps, and freestanding buildings. I help clients evaluate lease terms, understand landlord requirements, and identify spaces that minimize buildout costs and speed up opening timelines.
One of my key strengths is understanding restaurant infrastructure. I regularly advise clients on hoods, grease interceptors, HVAC capacity, walk-in coolers, fire suppression systems, and overall kitchen layout. This technical knowledge helps prevent costly mistakes and ensures the space truly fits the intended concept.
I am actively involved in the Arizona restaurant market and maintain strong relationships with landlords, property owners, attorneys, and industry professionals. This network allows me to uncover off-market opportunities, anticipate market shifts, and move quickly when the right deal appears.
Whether you are selling an existing restaurant, purchasing a turnkey operation, leasing a new space, or planning your next expansion, my goal is to provide straightforward advice, strong negotiation, and a smooth transaction from start to finish.
