I am 4th generation in a family enjoying Fair Oaks and Orangevale since 1910. I attended Earl Legette Elementary School in Fair Oaks, not knowing I was friends with the brother of my future wife. My father was a meat cutter and manager for Lucky grocery stores, and was occasionally transferred from store to store. We moved from Fair Oaks to Lake Tahoe, and then to Auburn where I graduated from Placer High School. We eventually moved to Orangevale when the chance arose.

I enlisted in the U.S. Navy, where I traveled to England, Italy, Turkey,Greece, Israel, Singapore, and Spain. Some of my most memorable times included our trip through the Suez Canal, and spending Christmas in Bethlehem. After boot camp I was stationed at Norfolk, Virginia, on the U.S.S. Independence CV 62 Aircraft Carrier. As we headed back to the Mediterranean Sea, I noticed the water was getting warmer, and the boat was headed south. The Independence was responding to orders to assist in the Battle at Granada, at which time I earned the designation of Veteran of Foreign Wars. I have since joined the Fair Oaks Chapter of the local VFW Hall.

At the end of active duty, I returned home and began serving in the U.S.Naval Reserves. It was during that time, that I was visiting my childhood friend and became acquainted with his sister, Sharon. Just over a year later, Sharon and I were married and started our life together in Orangevale. We bought our first house 2 years later in Citrus Heights. Our daughter, Ashley, was born a few months later.

I worked at an assortment of jobs over the years, including postal carrier, motorcycle repair, wine distribution, truck and equipment repair, and printing. While working at the print shop, I began studying for my real estate exam. By this time we had moved back to Fair Oaks, making Ashley the fifth generation of my family to live there.

My passion has always been to buy, sell, fix-up, ride, drive, show, and race dirt bikes, cars, and their respective parts. Ashley has inherited some of these interests and hobbies, with her first job being at Kragen Auto Parts. We have enjoyed dirt bike riding at Prairie City OHV Park, and drag racing the cars weve built at Sacramento Raceway.

I have been a REALTOR for 18 years, and work as a New Agent Mentor at the Fair Oaks Lyon Real Estate Office. I attribute some of my strong negotiating skills to my many years of buying and selling vehicles. After nearly 30 years of geriatric social work, I convinced my wife to become a REALTOR and join me at Lyon. With my real estate experience and her background in assisting with the needs of individuals and their families, we can help navigate even the most difficult of transactions. We hope you will choose us to guide you through your real estate experience.
