About Erika

I bring a unique combination of hospitality excellence and real estate expertise to every client relationship. After 20 years managing high-end restaurants in Healdsburg, I transitioned to real estate in 2019 because I wanted to use my skills in a way that creates lasting impact for families and investors. That service-driven foundation—anticipating needs, managing complex details, and staying calm under pressure—is what allows me to deliver exceptional results in today's competitive market. In 2024, I joined the Bruington Hargreaves Team at W Real Estate, a powerhouse group that in 2024 and 2025 sold 150+ properties worth over $160 million and ranks as the No. 2 team in Sonoma County by RealTrends.

I specialize in helping homeowners maximize their property's value through strategic marketing and creative problem-solving. Whether you're a move-up buyer ready to sell your starter home, an investor evaluating your portfolio, or a family navigating a major transition, I combine data-driven pricing strategies with innovative marketing tactics that generate competition among buyers. My approach has resulted in multiple-offer situations and above-asking sales—not through luck, but through meticulous preparation, professional presentation, and a deep understanding of what motivates buyers in Sonoma County. When you work with me, you get both the resources of a top-performing team and the personalized attention of an agent who treats your home sale like it's the only one that matters.

Jeff Catomer

I joined Bruington Hargreaves after more than a decade building deep community relationships across Sonoma County — first through sports, coaching, and gym management, and now through a real estate career centered on service, communication, and trust. Raised in Santa Rosa and rooted in the county for over 20 years, I bring a true local’s perspective to every client I work with.

At BruingtonHargreaves, I’m part of one of Sonoma County’s top-performing real estate teams

— a group known for its modern, data-driven, and design-forward approach. Based in Healdsburg, we serve buyers and sellers across Santa Rosa, Windsor, Sebastopol, Healdsburg, the Russian River, and the Sonoma Coast. Whether guiding first-time homebuyers, helping Bay Area families find a second home, or advising investors on high-potential properties, our team is committed to clarity, strategy, and superior results.

About Me

Before real estate, I earned a degree in Kinesiology and spent more than 10 years in gym management and personal training. That experience shaped the way I work today — focused on listening, collaboration, and helping people navigate major life decisions with confidence. In just the last two years, I’ve closed more than $10 million in home sales, specializing in first-time buyers and second-home investment clients.

Having lived in Sonoma County for most of my life, I love helping people find the neighborhood that truly fits them — from quiet country roads to vibrant in-town communities. I’m passionate about golf, travel, fitness, and finances, and I bring a calm, solutions-oriented mindset to every transaction. I live in Santa Rosa with my wife, Emily.
