After retiring from the Navy in 1997 and working in Network Television advertising for the next seven years, a great friend convinced me that Real Estate was the place I should be. I've been practicing full time ever since. When confronted with a hard decision I don't always take the easy way; doing the right thing is not always the easiest. Like I tell my clients and friends, "I was raised not hatched." I don't know any other way to treat people that to treat them like I would want my own family to be treated. l grew up in rural America, and drug a hammer till I could pick it up. Helping my parents renovate houses while we lived in them gave me a skill set that sets me apart from most agents. The combination of my Military Service, Marketing, and Construction backgrounds makes Real Estate a perfect fit. A wise man once said, "Do something you Love and you'll never work another day in your life." I would love the opportunity to assist you with your next Real Estate transaction.
