Bio
My family and I moved up to Alaska in 2003 and made it our home. I retired from the U.S. Army after serving for almost 22 years and joined Veterans Realty Group. Loyalty and integrity are two of the values that helped me have an extremely successful Army career, and will help me meet the needs, wants and desires of my clients.
I am very involved in the local non-profit community in Anchorage.
