About me

I love squashing chaos in a sometimes chaotic process! I love being a champion for my clients and having them win. Also, I just love my clients 🙂

My wife, Sharon, have our roots firmly planted in Shawnee, Oklahoma—a close-knit community just 35 minutes east of Oklahoma City and Tinker Air Force Base. I’ve been a REALTOR® here since 1994, and I’m not just Sold on Shawnee—I’m all-in!

Sharon teaches special education English at Shawnee High School, we’re both active in the music ministry at St. Paul’s United Methodist Church, and yes, we’re loyal regulars at what might just be the friendliest Starbucks around. With family and friends nearby, we’re exactly where we want to be.

By day, I’m out there helping clients find their dream homes or sell their current ones, while blogging a bit about life in Shawnee and beyond. In my downtime, you’ll likely find Sharon and me living it up—whether it’s a happy hour, a wine tasting, a night at the theater, or just kicking back with friends.

Service is at the core of my life, both in real estate and beyond. I’ve had the honor of supporting more than 10,000 Oklahoma REALTORS® through roles focused on education, advocacy, public affairs and improving the profession. I’ve coached teams in real estate companies big and small, and every day, I get to help families in the Shawnee area with likely their biggest investments—their homes. There’s nothing like guiding my clients through the buying and selling process, negotiating a win-win, and seeing them come out on top. 

I’ve been fortunate to work with exceptional brokers throughout my career, each one contributing to the values and expertise I bring to real estate today. Their guidance has been invaluable, and I’m proud to carry that experience into my work with NextHome Central Real Estate.

Spoiler alert: I’m a sucker for a good brunch, I’ve got a “black belt” in shopping, and I’m always game for splashing around—whether it’s at a hotel pool or in memory of my baths in the kitchen sink!
