I was born and raised in North Central Kansas. I grew up on farms, ranches, and in small towns in the area before moving to southern Colorado in 1995. I worked in my family’s farm machinery dealership and attended college on the western slope of Colorado. While living in western Colorado I began a career in law enforcement that spanned nearly 19 years. During that time I had the good fortune to meet people from all around the world, work with people of all different backgrounds, and was able to make positive changes in the communities I served. That ability, and opportunity, to serve made my career truly rewarding. I brought my wife and two kids back home to Salina in 2017. We have loved getting back to the small town feel and the Kansas values that Salina and the surrounding area has. We really have come to appreciate the opportunities and amenities of city life while still having the strong rural connection we had loved about life in the mountains. After leaving law enforcement in early 2021, I began searching for a new career that would still give me that opportunity to make my community a better place for everyone and to serve my hometown. I firmly believe real estate is that career. While researching this new career I found a great quote by Donald A. Adams that sums up my philosophy: “To give real service, you must give something which cannot be bought or measured with money, and that is sincerity and integrity.”  I look forward to the opportunity to serve you with honesty, sincerity, and integrity.  I’m truly excited to help you find your property where your lifelong memories will be made.
