Everyone knows real estate agents help people find and sell houses. It sounds simple. But a house is more than just shelter. It’s home -- where our families connect, grow, and thrive together. It’s where we meet our neighbors that become like family and where we find the community around us that bands together when times get tough. I love that I can be an ambassador for this community. Often times, I am the singular first person someone knows when they move here. It's good work. It's important work. That's why I love doing it. Nothing worth doing is easy, but I LOVE the opportunity to serve families well. "Wherever God has put you, that is your vocation. It is not what we do but how much love we put into it.” -St. Teresa of Calcutta

I'm a native Texan but raised a Military Brat, so where Texas is my home, I have moved around the world many times. I have 3 beautiful daughters and one son. Growing up watching my parents pack, move, and re-establish us, I learned to appreciate how much was involved with that. I suppose that is where my passion for real estate started. I want to make that transition easy and fun. I love joking around, golfing, and spending time with my family. I have 3 beautiful daughters and one son, and we are big BBQ'ers. But when it comes to my business and your move…that, I take seriously. Let's do this!!!

Your story matters—and I’m here to help you write the next chapter. As the son of a U.S. Air Force Colonel, I grew up with a deep appreciation for service, sacrifice, and the feeling of finally coming home. Moving around taught me how important it is to have a place that feels like yours, and that lesson stuck with me. After attending UMHB and playing football for the Cru (2007-2009) and starting my career in Austin, life brought me full circle back to the Temple-Belton area—the place I proudly call home. This community isn’t just where I work; it’s where my wife Brianna and I are raising our son Micah (go Lake Belton Broncos!) and where our two Labs, Charlie and Mya, chase tennis balls in the backyard. As a proud agent with Magnolia Realty—founded by Chip and Joanna Gaines—I lead every client relationship with honesty, dedication, and hard work. Whether you're relocating, upsizing, downsizing, or investing, my job is to listen first, serve with integrity, and guide you every step of the way with transparency and expert insight. When I’m not helping folks buy or sell, you’ll likely find me teeing off at a local course, fishing a quiet spot at sunrise, or out in the Texas backcountry with a camera in hand. Life’s too short not to love where you live—and I’d be honored to help you find your place in this incredible community. Thinking about buying or selling in Temple-Belton? Let’s talk. I’m here to help you make confident, informed decisions—no pressure, just honest support.
