Real estate is more than a transaction - it's a business decision, a financial decision, and often a life decision. Whether purchasing a first home, selling a longtime residence, or acquiring an investment property, every decision deserves thoughtful guidance, disciplined execution, and representation grounded in experience.

Before entering residential real estate, I spent more than 25 years building, leading, and advising businesses across multiple industries as a CEO, operating executive, and business owner. Throughout my career, I've negotiated acquisitions, led organizational turnarounds, managed complex transactions, and worked extensively with lenders, investors, and institutional capital partners. Earlier in my career, I worked in institutional investment management and commercial property management, experiences that continue to shape how I evaluate real estate opportunities, negotiate effectively, and advise clients today. My experience includes leadership roles in capital markets, healthcare, construction, property management, and multi-site operations, providing me with a practical understanding of business strategy and operational execution. I also proudly served in the U.S. Army as a member of the 101st Airborne, an experience that reinforced the discipline, accountability, and commitment to service that continue to guide how I work with clients today.

Licensed in Minnesota and affiliated with Coldwell Banker Realty, Minneapolis Lakes Office, I proudly serve buyers, sellers, and real estate investors throughout the Twin Cities metropolitan area and surrounding suburbs.

My role is to help clients evaluate opportunities, understand the financial implications of each decision, negotiate from a position of strength, and move forward with confidence. Whether the objective is finding a family home, maximizing the value of a sale, or building long-term wealth through real estate, my focus is on helping clients make informed decisions that align with their goals.

I work with homeowners, buyers, sellers, and investors to evaluate investment opportunities, financing strategies, and long-term wealth-building through real estate ownership. Whether purchasing a primary residence, expanding a rental portfolio, or preparing a property for sale, I approach every transaction with the same disciplined process, attention to detail, and commitment to execution that has guided my executive career.

Clients can expect responsive communication, practical advice, strong negotiation, and accountability throughout every stage of the transaction. I believe successful real estate relationships are built on trust, preparation, and consistently delivering on commitments.

As part of Coldwell Banker Realty, I combine the strength of one of the industry's most recognized brands with a business-first perspective developed over decades of executive leadership. My objective is to help clients make informed real estate decisions at every stage of property ownership.

You deserve business-minded representation grounded in executive experience, strategic thinking, disciplined negotiation, and an unwavering commitment to helping you make informed, confident real estate decisions. Those principles have guided my career for more than 25 years, and they continue to shape how I represent every client. I would welcome the opportunity to earn your business and become your long-term real estate resource.
