EARLY PASSION FOR REAL ESTATE & PROVEN ENTREPRENEUR
I grew up on the banks of the Chattahoochee River and the youngest of six kids. Our parents taught entrepreneurship early, and we all had jobs while a lot of other kids were, well, being kids. My fascination of houses and all the details that make them a home started when I was 11 years old and the minimum wage was $3.35 an hour. A close friend's father was a home builder, and we were tasked with cleaning homes after each phase of the build and getting them ready for the next. Before I could drive, my first business was a lawn service with my best friend, and we appropriately named ourselves 'The Lawn Rangers.' We learned how to perfectly manicure a yard while making spending money. In college, my appreciation of landscaping took me into golf course maintenance at Cherokee Country Club, where I learned how a 36-hole golf course and club is kept to exacting standards. In college, I delivered pizza for Domino's and also, delivered packages for UPS during the Holiday rush. I loved the hustle.
After graduating from The University of Georgia, I joined my siblings at Paper Affair, a chain of stationery stores in the Atlanta that my oldest siblings created. It was here that I learned about sales and what it truly meant to provide unforgettable customer experiences. In 1999, after four years on the sales floor, I launched the store's core offerings online at PaperStyle.com. The business thrived for 23+ years and although no longer in business, was a success in so many ways: millions of invitations and stationery orders fulfilled with a money-back guarantee.
COMMUNITY, CONNECTOR & ATLANTA CONCIERGE
I love Atlanta and the people that I have shared this city with all of my life. As an active member of our community, I am deeply rooted in our community with leaders and decision-makers. I have lived in neighborhoods throughout the Atlanta area and know details of each that few people can rival. I love learning and one of my proudest affiliations was with Entrepreneur's Organization, which included a peer group of 7 entrepreneurs that I had the fortune of meeting with monthly, for 11 years. Putting people first and doing the right thing with every decision are among my core values. My wife Lindsay, is the managing owner of Poppy's of Atlanta, the oldest women's clothing store in Buckhead (44 years)- located on E. Andrews Drive. We have an entrepreneurial 11-year-old named Jackson.
WHAT TO EXPECT
My attention to detail, follow-through and pursuit of delivering value are my greatest assets. The foundation of my business is summarized with two very simple words: exceed expectations. Whether buying or selling, you can be assured that the finest details will not be overlooked. Allow me and my team to elevate your home buying or selling experience; you have my word that it will be amazing.
