About
Born and raised in NW Calgary, I have a deep connection to this city, its communities, and the people who make Alberta such an incredible place to live, work, and invest. After high school, I was recruited to play university and professional soccer in Chicago, Illinois, an experience that taught me discipline, resilience, competitiveness, and the value of preparation at the highest level. After years in the United States, I returned to Alberta and began working in the oil and gas industry before moving with my family to Whitehorse, Yukon, where I worked as a carpenter with PCL Construction on a major seven-year commercial project. Following that chapter, I was recruited to join the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, serving as a police officer in the Okotoks, High River, and Diamond Valley detachments. My time in law enforcement sharpened my skills in negotiation, investigation, communication, risk assessment, and high-pressure decision-making — all of which now play a major role in how I represent my real estate clients. Today, I am a licensed REALTOR® with Real Broker, proudly serving Calgary and the surrounding area. I work with buyers, sellers, and investors across residential, luxury, condominium, rural, agribusiness, and commercial real estate. What I bring to the table is a unique combination of construction knowledge, investigative experience, negotiation strength, market analytics, and modern technology. As a former RCMP officer and Red Seal Carpenter, I help clients look beyond the surface of a property and understand value, condition, risk, opportunity, and long-term potential. I also leverage advanced market analytics, valuation modeling, absorption trends, inventory data, micro-market performance, and segmentation-based marketing strategies to help clients make confident, informed decisions. Whether pricing a home, evaluating investment potential, preparing a listing strategy, or negotiating an offer, my approach is practical, data-driven, and results-focused. As part of Real Broker, one of North America’s fastest-growing publicly traded real estate brokerages, I am backed by a powerful technology ecosystem, collaborative network, digital transaction tools, automated workflows, real-time reporting, and AI-powered systems designed to create a smoother and more transparent client experience. Whether you are buying, selling, investing, relocating, or simply trying to understand where your property fits in today’s market, I would be happy to help.
