I am very lucky to be a native of Waynesville. Local through and through, I have a deep appreciation and understanding of this special place and the wonderful people that live here. Mountain values instilled in me as a child help guide and direct me in the way I conduct business.Treat everyone fairly and honestly and the end result will be a rewarding experience.

After attending Tuscola High School here in Waynesville, I then attended The University of Tennessee. I was very fortunate to be able to return home to the mountains that I love. Having been involved in family businesses for many years has given me a lot of experience in many areas, plus taught me that hard work solves most problems.

I have been an active, licensed real estate broker for 11 years, and have been involved in real estate for over 25 years. My wife Patty has her own interior design business and was a former professional golfer. We have been blessed with two wonderful daughters. Erin is a junior in college and Brittany will be a freshman in college. Animals rule at our house. We are down to 1 dog and 3 cats, but have had turkeys, goats and horses.
