Data over guessing
Every recommendation is backed by real market data. You'll always know the why, not just the what.
About MaiI’m from here.
I’m from here.
That changes everything.
Most agents know Montgomery County from the MLS. Mai knows it from growing up here — the back roads, the school boundaries, the neighborhoods that look the same online but feel completely different in person.
Add a graduate degree in medical microbiology and a decade in research science and data analytics, and you get something genuinely rare: an agent who leads with local instinct and backs it up with numbers.

Raised here. Rooted here.
Montgomery County isn't a market to Mai — it's home. She grew up in Damascus, navigated the same school systems her clients are now researching for their kids, drove the commutes they're weighing, and watched neighborhoods evolve over decades.
As the founder of Damascus Life, a Damascus Fair Board Member, and a cheerleading coach with the Damascus Sports Association, she's not just licensed in this county — she's embedded in it.
Where the data comes in.
Before real estate, Mai spent years in research science, program management, community health, health IT, and artificial intelligence. At the center of all of it: a graduate degree in medical microbiology and a trained instinct for reading data that most people overlook.
For buyers, that means offer strategies grounded in what the numbers actually support. For sellers, it means pricing strategy based on live absorption data, rigorous comp selection, and no optimistic guesswork at the table.
The way she works.
Mai's practice is consultative and relationship-first. She's not chasing volume — she's building a reputation one honest conversation at a time. That means being willing to say when a home is overpriced, being direct about timing when the market doesn't cooperate, and guiding buyers away from emotional decisions when the numbers say no.
Outside the office.
When she's not at a showing or pulling comps, Mai is cheering on her daughter's squad at Damascus Sports Association, tending to two dogs, a cat, and a horseback-riding daughter who inherited her mom's love for all things with four legs.
She is with Pearson Smith Realty — one of the most respected brokerages in the greater DC metro.
Honesty first
If a home is overpriced, you'll hear it. If the timing isn't right, you'll know. Comfortable lies don't serve your interests.
Your timeline, not mine
The right move at the wrong time is still the wrong move. Mai works at your pace — not a commission calendar.
Local knowledge, for real
Not "specialist" on a bio — actually from here. Knows the streets, schools, commutes, and what quietly changed in the last three years.
Thoughtful guidance.
In real life.
