I was born and raised in the quaint town of Salem, OH and attended The Ohio State University. After college I began investing in real estate in and around Salem, OH where I purchased and managed 5 residential and 2 commercial properties. I subsequently sold those investments and ventured off to New York City enjoying a 23-year law clerk career while continuing to invest in real estate in Manhattan, Miami Beach and Fort Lauderdale. Looking for a change from the law clerk career and from the big city life, I came to the realization that the real estate business was my true calling. I moved from Manhattan to Ft. Lauderdale in 2007 and became a Florida Realtor with The Keyes Company. Drawing on my real estate investing and paralegal experience I am now happily pursuing my real estate career with The Keyes Company, utilizing my experience to the full benefit of my current and future customers.
