I like calling North Carolina home-no make that ‘love’ calling North Carolina home! My wife, our two rambunctious pups, and I live in Apex which truly is “the peak of good living”!
I was raised in western NC, just outside of Boone, in a town that values family, community, and strong work ethic. From the time I was 16 until I finished college, I worked nights, weekends, and holidays in the K-Mart Pharmacy in my hometown. During that time I established lasting relationships with multitudes of customers and co-workers.
My Triangle experience began in 2000 when I moved to Buies Creek to attend Campbell University. My wife and I graduated from the Lundy-Fetterman School of Business and we are both proud Campbell Alumni! Our careers took us to Winston-Salem in 2005 and we quickly realized that while we enjoyed Winston and the closeness to our families, the Triangle was where we truly fit and where we most felt at home.
Fresh out of college I spent 3 years “improving home improvement” while working for Lowe’s in merchandising and sales. Ready for a new challenge, I joined The Encore Group, which is now Russ Berrie US Gift where I was an account manager for mass and import business. The position was a combination of sales and project management dealing with some of the largest retailers in the country and also dealing with vendors located worldwide. Having worked for major corporations and international conglomerates I found myself wanting to have closer relationships that come from dealing one on one with clients.
In my free time, I enjoy running; from a 5K to a ½ marathon I’m ready to run! I coached Special Olympics for 6 years and I am still actively involved in supporting the organization. I also like to frequent concerts at Walnut Creek and Booth, listen to the comedian of the week at Goodnights, and cheer on the Hurricanes at the RBC. I have found that most anytime you need a night or weekend activity in the Triangle, there are unlimited possibilities. The proximity of the Triangle to the mountains and the beach also make both sides of the state easily accessible for NC Daycations!
I could not be more excited for the opportunity to work with you! If you are new to the triangle or are relocating here, I look forward to meeting you and helping you find your new home. My energy, ideas, and willingness to go above and beyond will make your home buying or selling experience a breeze. Give me a call and let’s get to work!
