Early Life

I was born in 1973 in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, a city rich in history and cultural diversity. My early years laid the foundation for my disciplined path in both military and law enforcement careers.

Military Service and Law Enforcement

During my 28-year law enforcement career, I served concurrently in the United States Army Reserve for 10 years, beginning as an infantryman and concluding my service as a military police officer. As a police officer, I retired as a patrol sergeant and occasionally acted as Chief of Police.

I earned many awards and citations throughout my distinguished career, with the Medal of Heroism, the Life Saving Award, and the FBI Trilogy Award being some of the most notable. These recognitions underscored my unwavering dedication, courage, and expertise in protecting others.

Transition to Milton Hershey School

I transition to a non-law enforcement role at the Milton Hershey School was challenging but interacting with the students proved highly rewarding. They shared their aspirations in law enforcement or the military, and I became a valuable mentor, providing advice and encouragement drawn from my own journey.

New Career in Real Estate

Inspired by family members and friends who succeeded in real estate, I sought a career that offered flexibility and autonomy. Helping clients find their dream homes and create spaces for memories is incredibly fulfilling. My experiences in law enforcement and military service undoubtedly shaped my approach, enabling me to provide strong guidance and support.

Future Aspirations

With real estate, I aim to balance career success with a lifestyle that allows for travel and personal freedom. Visiting places like Marco Island, the Caribbean islands, and my hunting camp in Potter County, Pennsylvania, are key aspirations, providing me with opportunities to enjoy life fully.

Conclusion

My life exemplifies dedication, courage, and adaptability. Whether guiding clients through the housing market or mentoring students, my story reflects a continued commitment to public service, growth, and helping others reach their dreams.
