I have fond childhood memories of Galveston and appreciate the advantage that growing up on the island has given me in my career as a local real estate professional. My family moved to Galveston when I was 5 years old from New Orleans, La. I attended St Mary’s Elementary, O’Connell Junior High and O’Connell High School. Our family home was one block from the seawall and I spent most of my summers on the beach surfing and fishing.
After high school, I attended the University of North Texas in Denton, Texas and received a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1978. After graduation, I was drawn back to the coast and I joined a Houston-based geophysical exploration company embarking on a 25-year career in the international oilfield services industry. Over the years, my job responsibilities required travel to all parts of the world and included longer residencies in Anchorage, Alaska, London and Rio de Janeiro.
Upon leaving the oilfield services industry in 2003 and returning to the United States from London, my wife and I settled in Jamaica Beach. We bought a waterfront home and have been remodeling it ever since! We could have settled anywhere, but the Galveston sand and salt air beckoned and returning home seemed the right thing to do. We don%u219t regret it one bit, and moving to the "West End" is proving to be a very positive quality-of-life decision. When not working, I can be found fishing in West Galveston Bay, working in our garden, or walking our Airedale Terrier, Olive Oyl.
Having the advantage of growing up here means I have an in-depth familiarity with all neighborhoods and all aspects of living on Galveston Island. My experiences with professional IT Systems, business software, health & safety management issues and multi-cultural environments compliment my professional real estate skills. Most importantly, being professionally trained in a service-driven environment compels me to offer the highest quality of customer service. As the world of real estate transactions evolve, it is clear that only technology and first-class service will differentiate real estate practitioners.
Since being licensed by the Texas Real Estate Commission as a Real Estate Salesperson, I have obtained the following accreditations from the National Association of Realtors: ePro – Internet Marketing, GRI – Graduate Realtor Institute, ABR – Accredited Buyers Representative, SFR – Short Sales and Foreclosures. I am an active member of the Houston Association of Realtors and the Galveston Association of Realtors.

I started my career in real estate in February, 2013 in Dallas/Fort Worth as a part time agent representing buyers. Because of my passion for helping others buy and sell real estate I made the move from Fort Worth to Galveston to pursue a full time career in real estate. Finding the right Realtor to work for you is the most important step in buying or selling a home. I am a real estate professional with integrity, professionalism, effective communication/negotiation skills and one who will always put your interests and needs first.
I have spent my entire career in service related industries, including 20 years with Frito Lay Inc., who encouraged development of strengths. This helped me to hone strong negotiation skills, management of detailed processes, expertise in interpersonal communication skills and the ability to work well with all types of people. My keen attention to detail has helped my clients avoid unnecessary headaches, delays and excess expenditures and I have a personal passion for helping others reach their desired goal or outcome.
On a personal note, I have been married to my amazing wife for over 34 years and have 3 daughters and 3 dogs. I enjoy all the benefits of island life including golf, fishing, kayaking and everything else the island has to offer.
Whether you're buying or selling your home, I understands that real estate can be a stressful process. Through constant communication and with being available whenever you need me, I can make the process run smooth. My knowledge of the surrounding areas and my drive to find that perfect home for you, really sets me apart from the others. Real estate is about the details and I encourage all my clients to research potential neighborhoods, schools, and area amenities, this allows me to find a home that will suit your specific needs. When not assisting clients, I enjoy spending time with my family and entertaining friends. It would be a pleasure and an honor to work for you whether it's with buying or selling your home.
