Jill is a licensed real estate agent in the State of Arizona. Her previous work experience includes practicing law as an attorney in a full-service law firm where she counseled business clients and reviewed, drafted, and negotiated transactional documents in a variety of commercial contexts. Jill majored in journalism and design as an undergraduate student at UCLA and the University of Washington and received her law degree with honors from the University of Washington. She is also a graduate of Arizona State University, earning a master’s degree with honors in Real Estate Development from the W.P. Carey School of Business.
As an immigrant who understands the cultural and language barriers a newcomer to America oftentime encounters, Jill is fluent in Mandarin Chinese and hopes to combine bilingualism with her legal experience and knowledge in commercial real estate development to help clients achieve their objectives. She handles both residential and commercial transactions at R.O.I. Properties, and leverages the brokerage firm’s full-service capabilities (such as property management and investment advisory) to provide concierge-like personal attention to meet each client’s unique situation.
An Arizona resident since 2010, Jill is passionate about giving back to the community. Her volunteer activities have included raising puppies for Guide Dogs for the Blind, leading a Girl Scout “Brownie” troop, acting as a court-appointed special advocate for foster youths, mentoring young women in Big Brothers Big Sisters of America, teaching Mandarin Chinese at Mesa Community College, tutoring children from low-income families, and helping refugees adjust to life in a new country. In her spare time, she enjoys traveling, hiking and listening to podcasts.
