About

My real estate journey began in 2004 when I worked as a marketing director for a local Austin-based management company. In 2005 at the ripe age of 21 years – I took what I learned from my past positions and wrote an extensive business plan for a new property management company. By July 2005, we opened our doors! Within a year, we were managing several hundred homes throughout the Austin, Texas, area.

Since 2005, I have learned the ups and downs of property management and obtained firsthand knowledge of what it takes to be proactive in this business. My passion is helping those in need, and I thrive by relieving our clients of the burden of day-to-day management by providing a workplace and team built on honesty, reliability, through our hospitable spirits.

I am a detail-oriented person and expect the perfect execution of our management systems to the clients we serve. With 512-Society, you can rest easy knowing we are proactive in our management approach, and that we have a plan, a backup plan, and a backup plan for the backup plan. You can rest assured that we can handle it, no matter what comes our way.

In my free time, you can catch me playing in the yard with 2 great kids and our 2 Mini Schnauzers. I also keep my husband busy with the never-ending honey-do projects (I enjoy changing up the house as often as I can)!

3 things people are shocked to learn about me:

• I can moonwalk
• I can wiggle my ears
• I spin Poi (fire)

I grew up in the Cascade Mountains of Washington state. I was a rambunctious boy who had no fear and enjoyed playing in the dirt, camping, and riding my horse to elementary school (not allowed I later found out).

In 2001, I enrolled in the Diver Institute of Technology (DTI) in Seattle to study becoming a commercial diver. Within 3 years, I was a saturation diver, diving to depths of 700 ft. At that depth, everything is pitch black, and I would work 8-hour shifts in sheer darkness to fix pipelines (yes, in the dark).  To be a great sat diver, you need quick wit, patience, and a knack for problem solving.

After 15 years as a diver, I retired and began renovating and flipping homes. This is when I realized I had a real passion for real estate – so it became a career.

When working with my clients, there are times that quick wit and problem solving can save them thousands. My superpower is that I never get frazzled by an obstacle. I think swiftly and proficiently when I work, which can make all the difference in the overall ROI or asset liquidity my clients demand.

When I’m not helping clients acquire or sell their properties, I am seen on my mini farm with my 2 kids and wife.

3 things people are shocked to learn about me:

• I helped flip the Costa Concordia cruise ship that ran aground
• I can fall asleep while standing up
• I saved the life of a man who was laying at the bottom of a pool in 2020 (My daughter calls me a superhero)
