✦ Florida roots. Straight answers. A life well lived. ✦
More than a résumé

Florida has always felt like home.

I’m a native Floridian who believes work should connect us to the people, places, and experiences that make life worth living.

After earning a marketing degree from Texas A&M and starting my career with The Clorox Company’s Walmart team, the pull of Florida brought me back to Fort Myers in 2003. I earned my real-estate broker’s license and U.S. Coast Guard Master Captain license—and built a career around helping people find their own version of paradise.

Today, my interests stretch from real estate and boating to clean cooking, fitness, fishing, and iPhone photography. This site is where all those chapters come together—and where the next one can begin.
