I was born & raised here in Jacksonville, Florida.
I have always had a passion for technology as it rapidly improves and evolves for the better by using innovative ideas along with creativity. Keeping that in mind, I started to contemplate as to how I could use my technology skills in the field of Real Estate and follow in my father’s footsteps who has been a very successful Florida Realtor & investor for more than 20 years. I realize that business is growing each and every day with different market changes and most importantly how personally fulfilling it is to assist people with their individual real estate needs. Varying from customers reaching milestones in life; perhaps an elderly couple retiring and downsizing or a young couple with their whole life ahead of them wanting to embark on a new adventure!
I have many hobbies that bring me joy like playing the guitar & playing soccer but, definitely serving others has by far been what brings me the most joy & satisfaction. For the past 5 years I have dedicated over 40 hours each month to community volunteering as part of a worldwide organization.
