After attending college and when it came time to choose a career, real estate was a natural choice. Being the son of a Realtor, he had a good idea of what would be involved. "I knew that the hours could be long, but I also knew of the rewards. Watching my mom help people buy or sell a house, and how those people appreciated her dedication looked like a rewarding career to me."
