Summary

A natural leader and communicator that has spent the last 12 years building quality relationships with clients involving their biggest single asset, their home. My key to being successful over the last decade has been my ability to sell expensive projects that require the faith of the client that I would be able to deliver a high quality product, timely and within budget.
