About Me
If you have a passion for the outdoors, I don't have to tell you how I ended up in this beautiful city. I made my first trip to Asheville for a week of rock climbing. The first day in town, I said, “I have found my home.” Less than a year later, I moved myself and my photography business to Asheville, North Carolina.
As a commercially rated pilot, I was able to combine my love of flying and photography to provide marketing services to the biggest real estate players all over the Southeast. Although I enjoyed the business I built, I came to spend more time traveling and less enjoying these beautiful mountains.
After years of helping agents to market properties, it hit me—real estate brokerage was my calling. My goal goes beyond helping my clients buy and sell property; I want to share my local business knowledge and marketing background to far exceed your expectations.
Experience
In 2004, I began a photography and marketing firm supplying advertising solutions to primarily large residential and commercial developers. Now, as a full time real estate broker, I use those same skills for my clients. I started my career with a focus on being the local expert in all things construction, development, and luxury. This evolved into me representing a single client for two years, one of the top luxury mountain communities in Western North Carolina. This experience was career changing and grew my appetite for the "big picture" deals that take my responsibilities beyond standard residential transactions. Commercial real estate was the obvious place for me to land as a long term career.
I often use the word “Partner” in describing my relationship with clients. I am proud to do business from an approach of looking at my clients as business partners rather than transactions with dollar signs. My goal is to always work with clients from a long-term partnership approach to serve your best interests without question or influence from personal financial motivation. Communication is key from start to finish of any transaction and I make myself available at all times. I am never too proud to bring on an additional broker with more experience in your specific situation should it be a benefit.
Beyond the transaction side of this business, I invite all of my clients to utilize my market knowledge even when they are not actively looking to buy, sell or lease. A decision to sell or acquire real estate is often contemplated months or years ahead of partnering with a broker. Call my cell phone, send me an email, or shoot me a text with your market question, idea, or general thoughts you would like to “kick” around. My goal is to be your go-to for the Western North Carolina commercial real estate market.
Lastly, I choose to partner with NAI Beverly-Hanks because their values and approach to doing business are parallel with my own. I am proud to be a part of a real estate firm that looks at the big picture and long-term relationships far before personal profits. My coworkers are more family than anything else and our collaborative approach to serving our clients I feel clearly sets us apart in this industry. The NAI affiliation gives us the global reach other local firms simply cannot compete with. So reach out, let’s grab a coffee and talk!

Ask An Expert
Is there a best time of the year to buy a house?
When it comes to buying a home, there are pros and cons for each season. Generally, the best season to buy a home is in late summer or fall. There are still plenty of homes for sale, but without the intense competition found during spring. Sellers are also known for being a bit more flexible this time of the year. Zillow reports that the highest number of listings with at least one price reduction are found August–September. However, the deeper buyers venture into fall, the less choice is available. If you value choice, and you want more buyers competing for the home you are leaving, spring could be your best season. Ultimately, the best time to buy a home is when you’re financially ready to do so.
