Why did you decide to get into Commercial Real Estate?

My father is a real estate broker and is nearing his 40th year in business. Having grown up around real estate, I was always fascinated by the constant ebb and flow of the market. It continues to be a fun job with the many relationships I have formed with ongoing clients. Many of them I now consider personal friends.

Why did you decide to make Columbus your home?

What is your favorite neighborhood of Columbus?

There are so many unique and fun neighborhoods in the City but my favorite, and the one I call home, is Grandview. The ability to walk to Grandview Ave and its shops and restaurants, the tight knit community and outstanding schools are just a few things that make living there really great. I am truly spoiled to have all those things and a commute to work that is usually under 10 minutes.

Where do you like to vacation?

There are so many places but a place called Platte Lake in Northern Michigan holds a special place as it is where I spent most summers as a kid. I was also married not far from there in a town called Leland, Michigan so, to me, summertime in Northern Michigan is about as good as it gets.
