As an attorney with over 25 years of experience (currently 53 years old), I have been a part of over 7,500 real estate closings (I am a member of the bar in Maryland, West Virginia and Virginia). The closings handled through my law firm were entirely handled by me (and some help from my wife) wherein the attention to detail was paramount along with keeping up with the pressure of the demands of many different clients (and bankers/realtors). I also managed others in the Title Company I founded and owned in Deep Creek Maryland, learning a great deal on how to run an effective team. My ability to comprehend regulations, restrictions, ordinances and statutes and apply them to my work is a strength I could apply even in other fields.
I also opened a brewery in Davis, West Virginia in 2015, it has been the highest rated brewery on Untapped for almost the entire time we have been opened. I had no education/experience in brewing and figured it all out on my own and turned it into a successful business, all while keeping up with the demands of my law firm and title company. I believe I can succeed at any challenge that lies ahead.
