I was born in California, but I grew up in Minot, North Dakota with just my mom and two sisters. It’s a small town in a quiet state—long winters, short summers, but filled with good people. Loyalty is simply the standard there, and no one ever seems too busy to help. I grew up in that kind of environment, and it’s become a part of who I am. Eventually, it was the lack of sunny days that led me back to California—but it wasn’t long before I found my way to an even sunnier place: Arizona. I’ve now been living in Arizona for almost 20 years, and it’s been pretty good to me. I discovered a love for hiking, and I’ve been able to experience some amazing golf—still working on that swing! My wife and I love to travel, and we’ve taken our kids just about everywhere across this beautiful state. Even now that they’re grown, they still enjoy traveling with us, which says a lot. When we’re not traveling, and we find ourselves with a little time to slow down, we love wine tasting, shopping, or scouting out new restaurants to try. But let’s be honest—it’s hard to turn down a good steakhouse. I got into real estate because I want to make a real difference. I want to help people find their first home—or their next one. I also want to be there when it’s time to sell. I remember how it felt to buy our first home, and I want to help others experience that same excitement, security, and joy. I also remember how it felt when we sold it—and all the ups and downs along the way. That’s why I’m committed to making the home selling experience smooth, simple, and stress-free for every client. Arizona has so much to offer—majestic mountains, beautiful lakes, wide-open desert skies, and yes, the vibe of a big city when you want it. Whether you’re looking for a peaceful family town or the energy of downtown life, there’s a place here for everyone. Being a Realtor in Arizona isn’t just my job—it’s a joy. if I can help you find a place to call home, or help you move on to your next chapter.
