I grew up in the small town of Salem, Indiana. After attending Indiana University and graduating from the Kelley School of Business in 2004, I moved to Arizona to start a career in the real estate industry.  

During the housing market collapse in 2008, I combined my midwest work ethic with my entrepreneurial spirit to start a real estate investment company. In 2010, I was recognized by Realtor Magazine as “30 Under 30” Honoree.

With roots growing up in Kentuckiana – bourbon, basketball, and the Kentucky Derby are in my blood. A few years ago, when my dad was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer and a hometown friend’s 3-year-old daughter had tumors growing on her spine, I felt inspired to make a difference and started Bourbon Charity.

I am blessed with a beautiful family… my wife, Laura (Lala), my 9-year-old son, Traven, my 6-year-old daughter, Greylin, and our Golden Retriever, Skotch.  We enjoy boating on Lake Powell, movie nights, nerf gun wars, and lots of chilling together.
