As an executive with 20 years of experience in the healthcare industry and an MBA, here I am in real estate. So why would you hire me to help you buy or sell your home? Because of my 20 years of experience in the healthcare industry and my MBA. Read on.
My career began in Atlanta, Georgia working in a large medical center as the Director of Cardiopulmonary Services and two decades later I ended up as a Senior Director of Business Development for one of the leading providers of rehabilitation program management services in St. Louis, Missouri. In between, I rounded out my experience with management, operations and consulting.
Real estate is a natural fit when you look at the skills I’ve developed – sales, negotiation, management and communication. I’m analytical and have negotiated small contracts to multi-million dollar deals. I’ve coached sales teams to expect and achieve success. My personal real estate portfolio has served well over the years as a training ground to understand this business. Today, I serve as a commissioner on the San Luis Obispo Architectural Review Commission (ARC), giving me an edge on those obscure details that can prolong or overturn a real estate deal.
To me, real estate is more than the obvious buying and selling of homes. It’s about relationships. Long-term relationships. It’s about caring enough to discover what is important to a family, a couple or an individual and finding the home that best captures those values. It’s about ending my day knowing that my clients love not only their home but their street, their neighborhood, their town.
I am highly motivated, persistent and enthusiastic. I am committed to my clients and my community. I do the homework so that both my clients and I are well-informed before making vital decisions. I am a person of integrity who prides himself on being a resource above and beyond the world of real estate. I dedicate much of my time to giving back to a community that has given so much to me.
