I first came to Denver in 1969. I grew up in Aurora in the 1970’s and attended college at the University of Colorado in Boulder where I earned degrees in Genetic Engineering and Applied Physics. During this time I was also an internationally ranked martial arts competitor and hold several advanced black belts. Post-college, I spent some time working for the Defense Department and then in local and federal law enforcement before settling in the tech industry where I spent over 25 years.
I began by starting and selling a successful software company. I rounded off my time in tech as a C-Level executive at a couple of global corporations and then finally a couple of start ups. These were wonderful experiences, but at the core there was always something missing. I didn’t feel like the work I was doing was directly contributing to my community.
After some soul searching and extensive discussions with my wife, I decided to make a career move to a place where I would be able to directly help people and champion the communities in which we live. In my mind, being a Realtor® is the best way for me to accomplish this. As a Realtor®, I am committed to helping my clients in every possible way, being the local knowledge expert for the area, and helping find just the right home, and/or just the right buyer. My diverse background and passion has helped me quickly become one of Colorado’s top Realtors® (ranked by America’s Best and RealTrends) and one of the top 1.5% in the nation.
This past year (2022), my wife decided to join me and became a licensed Realtor® as well. We now work together, striving to provide the best possible experience for our clients. Colorado mountain living presents a unique set of challenges for homeowners and we pride ourselves on being the market experts in our communities. Being former a professional athlete, my wife and I are very active and avid outdoors people all year round, and we are long time residents of Colorado’s mountain communities. We have decades worth of local knowledge and insight. We currently split our time between Keystone and Evergreen West, so we are perfectly comfortable helping you with your real estate needs in the foothills of Denver and in Summit County.
