In the professional golf world, mediocre performances don’t make the cut. So too in commercial real estate, where clients expect and deserve elite levels of service and results.

I’ve been proud to represent New Mexico on the golf course, first in my hometown of Clovis, then as an All-American at UNM, and most recently in my professional career. Since 1999, I’ve had the fortune of playing in hundreds of events on both the PGA and Web.com Tours while also managing my own golf academy here in Albuquerque. It’s required powerful work ethic and personal drive, as well as unique business savvy and dedication to the success of my sponsors and clients.

Now, as a full time commercial real estate professional, I’m proud to utilize those same skills each day on behalf of the clients I serve. Never one to settle for par, my top priority is to exceed expectations and give you the highest quality experience possible with each real estate transaction.

Together, we can develop winning solutions for your business challenges that set you up for lasting success.

When I’m not at the office, you can find me having fun with my family or even mastering a new recipe in the kitchen. And of course, I’ve still been known to swing a golf club now and then too.
