My Story
Growing up in a small town taught me the value of hard work, gave me a sense of community, and filled me with love of family. I am thankful for the things I learned from my parents and for the inspired words of a loving mother.

Growing up on our family farm I spent much of my youth learning to irrigate, driving a water truck and forklift, chopping cotton, picking and selling corn, grapes and other fruits and vegetables, stacking pallets of potato sacks, helping move cotton trailers, and other work on the farm. It was a lot of fun, and these things taught me the value of hard work.

 

The whole town of Queen Creek often got together for community activities such as the Fourth of July fireworks. The town would gather on the softball field behind the church on Ellsworth Road which is now the Town Hall. We would have a big picnic with watermelon provided by Newell Barney and there would be games and visiting with all of our friends and neighbors. Living in a small town taught me the importance of a strong sense of community.

 

Running a farm was hard work for my grandparents and parents but finding time for family was always important. We spent a lot of time together going to the lake, out to eat, attending church, traveling, and my grandfather often took us flying in his airplane. My parents were always supportive of any of our school or church activities. We would travel to town (Mesa) each week to spend time with family there as well. Growing up so close to family filled me with love and the importance of knowing where I come from.
 
Throughout most of my high school experience I watched my father lovingly care for my mother, helping her through her leukemia treatments. When she went into remission, it was a miracle! But I still held on to the fear that she may get sick again. I was called to serve a two year church mission in New Jersey, and at the time, we could only communicate through weekly letters. I was very hesitant to go, fearing that my mother would get sick again while I was gone. Even though I was passionate about serving my church, I was scared to be away from my family.
 
I remember having a talk with my mother one day while she was washing the dishes. I expressed my concerns, and she reassured me that everything would be OK. She said, “You need to go on your mission, you will have a great experience, and you will help a lot of people. I am going to be fine, and we will be blessed because of your service.”
 
She was right about everything. I worked with the Spanish-speaking community in New Jersey for two years and taught them about Jesus Christ. I was able to connect with so many people and serve a bigger purpose. The experience showed me how powerful it is to look past yourself and help others. While she is no longer with us, my mother’s memory is a lasting source of guidance in my life.

What I am most proud of is my family. My wife is my best friend and watching our children grow and develop into amazing people has been one of the greatest joys of our life. My family was the ultimate motivation for me to change careers. After many years of travel in sales and marketing, in 2015 I left my position as Vice President of Sales to become a REALTOR®. I wanted to build a business around my morals and values.
 
Many of my core values instilled in my youth continue to guide my life today. Through my church, my career and my personal life, I try to serve and help others, work hard, and lead with kindness.
 
Through real estate, I have been able to serve my clients and help fulfill an important role in their buying or selling experience. I always prioritize the customer’s needs and satisfaction above all else. I believe in building strong relationships with clients based on trust, transparency, and communication. Connecting with people is my favorite part of real estate. I love how the relationships transform from the first time I meet a client to the day I hand over the keys to their new home.
 
Honesty and integrity are at the core of everything I do, and I strive to exceed expectations and deliver results with every interaction. I value continuous learning and growth and am committed to staying up to date with industry trends and best practices to better serve my clients. I want to provide every client with a positive and memorable experience. After the transaction is over, I will continue being your trusted real estate advisor and partner in your success.
 
 
Sincerely,
