๐ง๐ฒ๐ป ๐๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ ๐ฎ๐ด๐ผ ๐๐ผ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐, I stepped into real estate for one simple reason: ๐๐ผ ๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐ถ๐ฑ๐ฒ.
At the time, I was working full time in ministry, with freelance graphic design on the side, married to my beautiful, God-fearing wife, and raising two young boys. Real estate wasnโt the dream. It was the provision God used to carry our family forward.
What many people donโt know is that this industry didnโt come out of nowhere for me. My wife had already been exposed to real estate and always believed there was more in me. More capacity. More responsibility. More ability to provide for our family. I resisted the idea for years, not out of fear, but because I was fulfilled. Full-time ministry was my dream job. But as our family grew, so did the calling to serve God not only spiritually, but faithfully through provision.
Fast-forward ten years.
Five incredible sons.
A thriving, joyful marriage to the woman of my dreams.
And the ability to faithfully tithe more than I ever made combining freelance work and a church salary.

Biggie said, โMo money, mo problems.โ
Iโve always liked Dave Ramseyโs version better: โLive like no one else, so later you can live and give like no one else.โ
This was never a side hustle.
I didnโt dabble.
I didnโt do this part time.
I ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ป๐ป๐ผ๐ป๐ฏ๐ฎ๐น๐น๐ฒ๐ฑ into real estate.
There were only two options.
I had to make itโฆ or make it.
But the truth is, none of this happens without trusting God.
โTrust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.โ
๐ฃ๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฏ๐ ๐ฏ:๐ฑโ๐ฒ
My formula has always been simple, and it has never changed.
First, my faith in God.
Second, loving and providing for my wife.
Third, loving and protecting my children.
Then real estate.
In that order. Always.
There will never be enough words to express my gratitude for my wife. She knows exactly when I need more prayer. She prays over me, our family, my clients, my deals, my stress, and my worries. She is a prayer warrior, and I would not have found a single ounce of success in this industry without her belief in me and her prayers covering our home.
I also owe more than I can articulate to my broker and one of my best friends, Gordon. A wise, funny, brilliant man who loves the Lord and believed in me before I had anything to prove. Being mentored by someone in a season of life far beyond mine, who leads with wisdom, patience, and deep conviction, has shaped not just my career, but the man I strive to be.
And I would not be the agent I am today without the leadership of Terry. Over the years, he instilled one word deeply into my professional life: ๐๐ป๐๐ฒ๐ด๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐.
Integrity is living a life where your words and actions align, doing the right thing even when no one is watching.
Iโm incredibly grateful for the trust and opportunity Iโve been given to represent ๐๐น๐ฎ๐๐๐ถ๐ฐ ๐๐บ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ป ๐๐ผ๐บ๐ฒ๐, a relationship that began on day one and has now spanned all ten years of my career. Standing alongside a builder that has delivered exceptional value in new construction in El Paso for nearly four decades has been an honor.
And over the last year, Iโve been blessed with the opportunity to earn the trust of ๐ฆ๐ถ๐ด๐ป๐ฎ๐๐๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐๐ผ๐บ๐ฒ๐, a family-owned, semi-custom builder known for thoughtful design, elevated features, and homes that feel intentional the moment you walk in.

This decade wasnโt built overnight.
It was built on faith, family, integrity, and trust. One step, one prayer, and one relationship at a time.
And Iโm just getting started.
