My parents began working in real estate when I attended Fort Walton Beach High School.. I suppose you could say I was raised in real estate. As a young person, I painted apartments, cleaned and helped in the office. All topics of real estate were discussed around the dinner table. In 1993 I returned to the Fort Walton Beach/Destin area and began working real estate in earnest. Having been in the large convention hotel business for a number of years, I was surprised at how much I enjoyed the job...in fact, I loved it. Twenty five years later I still love it. I have an extensive background in real estate investing, development, sales, property management and office management.
