Why did you decide to get into Commercial Real Estate?

After working on Capitol Hill in Washington D.C. for two years after college, I found myself wanting to make a career change. One of my best friends suggested I should consider commercial real estate so in 2007 I got licensed and then the big recession hit. Although times were tough, it created a solid foundation for how I run my real estate practice and treat my clients with honesty, integrity and respect.

Where do you like to vacation?

Marco Island, FL and any of the Great Lakes regions. I prefer laid back and relaxing destinations where I can unplug and spend quality time with the family.

What is your favorite hidden gem in Columbus?

Hellas Carryout in Shawnee Hills has been one of my favorite places to eat since I was in elementary school. They have the best omelettes and gyros in town.
