About
I have lived most of my life in northern New York, apart from the time my father was in the military. After college, my wife and I started a family in Watertown to be near our relatives. My daughter is in college, and my son is in high school. My wife is a middle school teacher.

I have spent most of my career as a multi-unit supervisor, where I was a top performer over the years. I provide a high level of service to my clients through open and honest communication, delivered promptly.

My hobbies include traveling, enjoying live music, attending sporting events, watching musicals with my family, and occasionally running, including participating in marathons.

Ricky is the the best realtor in the area, he is of the highest integrity, he knows his stuff, and I found myself looking to him immediately when I didn't understand something about the home buying process or even after the purchase, things like what trash service to use - he helped with all of it. When we looked at homes he pointed things out I never thought to look for, he was very responsive and always got back to me the same day. He had great recommendations for services like inspectors and knows what everyone in the area offers. He is honest and fair, and worked with my somewhat unique situation to make things fair for all parties. I would buy a home with Ricky again, and will sell my home with Ricky. There's no one better!
