I was born in Detroit, MI, and grew up in the Metro Detroit area. I have a bachelor’s degree in electronics engineering & computer design. I worked for Simplex Time Recorder Co. providing service as an electronic tech, and then worked for Tyco Int. as a field engineer for 14 years. Interested in finance, I acquired an insurance license, and series 6 & 63 Securities Licenses, to become a financial consultant, and simultaneously helped start a multilevel marketing business that grew to over 1,500 consultants in 46 states and $2.5 million in sales. This gave me the financial freedom to pursue the healthy, active, outdoor lifestyle I’ve always dreamt of in one of the most beautiful places on earth, Northern Michigan! Living in Northern Michigan since 1999, being an avid sportsman in the area for over 36 years, and having three wonderful children graduate from Charlevoix, East Jordan, and Boyne City high schools has given me an intimate knowledge of the school districts, neighborhoods, woodlands, lakes, rivers & streams. My mission as your real estate agent, is to utilize all of my marketing, sales, finance and personal service skills to help you achieve your dream of owning property in beautiful Northern Michigan, be it a luxury estate on Lake Michigan, Charlevoix, or Walloon, or finding the perfect home for a first-time home buyer. Let me help you to achieve your dream with as smooth and seamless a process as possible!
