I grew up in Torrington, Connecticut, where I was always drawn to learning new things and challenging myself in different ways. That curiosity eventually led me to Arlington, Virginia, where I earned a degree in Business Administration with a concentration in Accounting from Marymount University. While there, I enjoyed exploring Washington, D.C., and taking in the energy of the city.
After college, I worked as a paralegal in both New York City and later in New Haven, Connecticut, but after a few years, I felt the call to head west. Before making the move, my wife and I walked the Camino de Santiago in Spain—a powerful experience that fed my love of reflection and connecting with people from all walks of life.
After our journey, we settled in Ashland, Oregon, where I took a position as an accountant at Southern Oregon University. In my spare time, I started studying for my real estate license. I saw it as the perfect way to combine my analytical background with my desire to work closely with others. In 2019, I transitioned into real estate full-time and haven’t looked back.
I follow the real estate market closely and rely on numbers, trends, and local knowledge to help my clients make informed decisions—whether they’re buying and/or selling a home or investing in a property. I’ve been involved in hundreds of real estate transactions and also invest in real estate myself, which gives me a practical perspective I enjoy sharing with clients.
Outside of work, I’m always looking to grow and learn. I love traveling and spending time on the trails with my wife, our daughter, and our two golden retrievers, Willow and Shasta. I’m also a dedicated runner, hiker, weight training and nutrition enthusiast—and a lifelong bowler (with a perfect game to my name). Recently, I’ve even started learning French, just to keep things interesting.
