Born in 1949 in Indiana on an active farm, I learned the value of hard work and honesty at an early age.  I am a graduate of Indian University and a strong believer in continuous learning.  These values, plus a natural love of marketing, have guided me to success in my real estate career.

Most of my life has been spent in Pinellas County, Florida, so I know the Florida market well.  My wife and I live in Clearwater and have 4 children all residing in the area.

My principal vice is fly fishing and I am on the board of directors of the Suncoast Fly Fishers.  When not working, you'll find me kayaking and casting to fish on the flats of Tampa Bay, reading a novel under a beach umbrella or checking out a new restaurant or wine tasting event.
