Biography with Embedded Image
Profile Image

I was born and raised in the southern part of the state of Jalisco, near a cozy and well-known coastal town: Barra de Navidad. In 1998, I moved to Puerto Vallarta—a city that became my second home. There, I studied and earned my bachelor’s degree in Public Accounting. During my time as an accountant, I enjoyed my office responsibilities, but what truly inspired me was direct interaction with people.

As time went on, in 2005 I decided to make a professional change toward the hospitality industry, starting in the concierge department and later becoming involved in sales and call centers.

Thanks to that experience, my interest in the real estate world was born. I am fully aware of the importance of real estate investments—both for investors and for families—and I’m passionate about guiding clients through that process.

Today, as part of the Donner & Associates team, I am committed to helping you find the perfect property or piece of land that matches your needs, budget, and lifestyle—whether it’s within the beautiful Bay of Banderas, in other destinations across Mexico, or even abroad! Whether you’re looking for a new home, a vacation property, or a strategic investment, I have the experience and support to guide you safely and efficiently. It will be my pleasure to accompany you through this exciting journey!
