After the military and prior to Real Estate, I was in the mortgage servicing business for 15 years, specializing in default servicing (Short Sales, REO's, etc.). It was a difficult, heart-wrenching job, so I made sure to take every care and consideration with those clients. This is what I love about my current career: there is nothing more rewarding than getting a house sold quickly for a seller, or handing over a set of keys to a buyer. A satisfied customer and their smile are worth its weight in gold and I wouldn't trade it for the world! Originally from Minnesota (Ya you betcha!), I gave 8 years of service in the United States Navy, including the Gulf War, right after high school. After my service, I moved here to the great state of Florida. But it sure is fun to visit! Here, I married my beautiful wife and we have three children, 2 girls and 1 boy. We enjoy traveling, boating, the beaches and backyard BBQ's with friends and family. My children are very active in various team sports throughout the year, and when possible, I coach most of those teams. If I'm not coaching, I'm the best cheerleader I know! We have now lived in the Clay County area for 20 years and love the schools, the convenience to shopping and major medical facilities and the overall friendly atmosphere it provides. I would highly recommend catching a show/event at the Thrasher Horne center of Performing Arts, and in my humble opinion, we have THE BEST fair in the Jacksonville area every spring, the Clay County Agricultural Fair! There are several beautiful golf courses as well which I like to check up on as often as time allows. I'm also a member of VFW Post 8255 in Middleburg, FL. My goal is to take away as much of the stress as I can whether you are selling or purchasing a home, as this is usually the BIGGEST and MOST STRESSFUL transaction someone can face! Communication is key, along with knowledge, support, trust and guidance. You have better things to do than stress…like pack! I never forget that I work for you – and together, we will get it done!
