I've been a League City/Clear Lake resident for nearly 40 years. I'm a proud father of three daughters. I graduated from Clear Lake High School, attended Texas A&M University and was an active member of the Alpha Tau Omega Fraternity. I went on to attend the University of Houston where I received a Bachelor of Arts degree with a minor in business.

In 2002 I began consulting area developers in land planning, development, and community needs. This led to an interest in home construction and going to work for a Dallas based semi-custom home builder who wanted to grow their business in Houston and the surrounding suburbs. As a result of the housing downturn and Hurricane Ike in 2008, I left new home construction and began rebuilding damaged homes from Houston to Galveston. In 2011 I decided to become a licensed Realtor®. Since getting my license I've been featured in Texan Monthly magazine, the Houston Chronicle, and the Bay Area Magazine for my real estate expertise.

I became a Real Estate Broker in 2015. Over the years I've received many professional awards in Real Estate and recognized state-wide for accomplishments in selling homes, land, and businesses.
In addition to my real estate career, I'm an active member of the community. Served for 9 years on the Clear Lake Area Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors, 6 years on the Clear Creek Education Foundation BOD and Chairman of the Board, and in 2021 was elected to serve on the Clear Creek ISD Board of Trustees, which I'm current the Vice-President of the Board.
