I came to Asheville with my wife nearly 15 years ago from New York City. Like so many others from all over the country and the world who are drawn to this eclectic and beautiful city, I fell in love with it the first time I visited and moved here within that year. I’ve never looked back, and I’m so happy to call Asheville my home.
PERSONAL
I’m an avid gardener and hold a permaculture design certification which I’ve utilized to create my home garden. My garden was featured in the 2017 West Asheville Garden Stroll (WAGS), an organization that hosts the annual tour of notable gardens, and provides seed money grants for local (preferably edible) beautification projects.
I love to play my guitar, explore what’s going on downtown, hike the Blue Ridge Mountains with my wife and rescue-dog Toby, and I’m a bi-lingual Spanish speaker.
PROFESSIONAL
As a REALTOR, I’ve represented first time buyers, investors, Spanish speakers, growing families, and retirees. My honesty, creativity, and insight, make me the hard working person you can trust to navigate the financial and sometimes emotional journey that real estate can take you on.
I’ve worked in the Asheville real estate market for nearly 15 years. Initially with the regional MLS, leading the team handling logistical and coordination support for the Realtors in our region. I observed the patterns and rhythms of the sales side of the industry and which listings inspired excitement.
Later, I was hired to develop a marketing and sales department for a local company that supplied to contractors and home builders. I’m proud to have delivered several years of double-digit growth to that company. These clients gave me a view into the expanding real estate market and I visited renovations, infill projects, new home subdivisions (from modest to high-end custom projects) in Buncombe and surrounding counties on a regular basis. This gave me a strong knowledge of Asheville neighborhoods and surrounding towns.
I’ve served on the board of the East West Asheville Neighborhood Association (EWANA). This work crossed into issues of infrastructure, development, and zoning that affect all of us in the Asheville area.
It gives me great joy to help people. I take my charge seriously to support, problem solve, communicate clearly, and give you the tools necessary to make your decisions. My experience as a homeowner, property investor, landlord, community representative and tireless advocate for my clients’ interests, ensure that you will be in good hands.
