After more than 30 years in software and technology product marketing, traveling and worring about product schedules, I decided it was time to move into a profession that could provide a great deal of personal satisfaction in helping people. Real Estate as a business requires all of the marketing, negotiating and sales skills obtained and honed over the years. It also provides me with the satisfaction of working with the customer directly, the end user, the families and individuals who buy and sell houses and businessess. I have always been committed to service, understanding my product which in this case is the characteristics and future of Surprise and the West Valley real estate market, and helping my clients achieve their goals. This is career that allows me to not only enjoy earnings from my work, but the smiles from my clients when we have reached their real estate goals.
