U.S. Army Retired · Broker / REALTOR® · NMLS 2426605

Real estate executive with command of the entire development cycle.

For 17 years I have founded, scaled and led real estate organizations across Florida, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut, with more than 3,000 homes sold and over $1 billion in career sales volume.

I am a licensed Real Estate Broker in four states, a Florida Certified General Contractor, a Massachusetts Construction Supervisor and an NMLS Mortgage Loan Originator. That combination gives me direct, working knowledge of land acquisition, entitlement, construction, sales, financing and closing. I have led teams of approximately 100 agents across multiple states and built Winslow Homes into an independent multi-state brokerage.

I am seeking an executive leadership role where I can apply that experience to accelerate sales, strengthen operations and scale a growing homebuilding and development organization.

Financing as a sales strategy

I treat the mortgage as part of the sale, not a step that happens after it.

Rate buydowns, closing cost structures and portfolio loan products directly affect affordability, buyer conversion and community absorption. My background as a broker and builder lets me design financing programs that move inventory while protecting margin.

2026 to present

For buyers

Executive scope

One leader across the full development cycle

Most homebuilders rely on separate leaders for land, construction, sales, lending and marketing. I have led all five functions as an owner, with my own licenses and capital at stake. That perspective lets me connect decisions across departments and see how each one affects margin, speed and the customer.

Family first

Jaikob, Jaelynn and Julianna

Our three children are the reason we work as hard as we do. When our daughters committed to competitive cheer, Megan and I moved our family and our business from Massachusetts to Florida so they could train and compete at the highest level. For the past four years we have made the long drive to South Florida week after week for practices and competitions, running a multi-state company from the road so we never missed a routine. Our son Jaikob grew up around our business and has watched it grow from the ground up. Everything we build, we build for them.
