I originally grew up in the Midwest and attended the University of Kansas. I've lived and worked in Arizona since 1980. My career experience is very well diversified having worked as a financial advisor, small business owner, contactor and currently as a full-time realtor. I'm very familiar with all parts of the "Valley of the Sun" which really helps me in my real estate career.  My specialty as a realtor is in the Active Adult Communities. I enjoy helping people with their goals. If there is something you want to know about the Arizona lifestyle I feel like I'm a pretty good resource.  Just ask and I can probably help.  My hobbies include golf, hiking, skiing, biking, and water sports. Being outdoors makes me feel at home. I love Arizona.
