This experience taught him at an early age the value of hard work, saving money and how to manage business at an early age. Many years later his hard work ethic and experience paid off for him.

After a successful career in the fields of engineering, product development, sales, product management and real estate, I can truly say that my career as a First Choice Business Broker is one of the most fulfilling. ?My background and experience will serve as a key asset in guiding our process. In addition to being a First Choice Business Broker, 10 years in Corporate America and 23 years as a full time REALTOR®, I have managed over 350 successful transactions since 2002 throughout the Carolinas. I started my real estate career with Century 21. In 2005, I earned their Centurion Award and was ranked as one of the top 100 franchise Century 21 agents in the Carolinas. Between 2010 and 2016, I consistently achieved the 100% Club Award from RE/MAX International. I am a proud graduate of North Carolina A&T State University with a Bachelors in Industrial Engineering and The Johns Hopkins University with a MBA in Corporate Finance from the Carey School of Business.
