I was born and raised in Orange County, California and earned my real estate license as a gift to myself for my 21st birthday in 1981. It is still active today as is a Nevada real estate brokers license.

I am listed in the 1989 edition of "Who's Who Among Young American Professionals".

I have also been a licensed mortgage banker and broker and held series 6 & 63 licenses from the NASD. In the late 1980's, I was a lead broker who assisted the RTC (ResolutionTrust Corporation) in liquidating assets owned by them in Southern California.

Previously, I was President of one of Nevada'a largest youth soccer organizations and have also served as a CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) for children in the Nevada Family Court System. I currently reside in Southern Nevada where I spend time with my family water skiing, watching my daughter play competitive soccer and working out at the gym.
