Born and raised in Bellevue, Washington, with three generations strong and a family history traced back to the mid-1800s in Washington State, I became an independent business owner by the age of 19. At 29, I found my wife and best friend, and we decided to move to beautiful Bellingham, Washington, to start a family and my career in real estate in September 2001. I truly believe that being a Realtor is not just a job—it's a service to help people through one of the toughest decisions of their lives and to ensure the process runs as smoothly as possible. I continue to place my clients first in this ever-changing market, providing 20 solid years of real estate experience and knowledge to represent you! Loyal customers have referred to me as their "stand-up guy"! Fellow Realtors know me as a bold negotiator with the integrity of a lion. I am truly proud to be a Washington Realtor and an established resident of Bellingham, Washington.
