What do you do to relax when you’re stressed? Chillin’ on my boat at my lake house – call ahead when you join me!

What do you love most about the industry? On a good day, it is the best job in the world. On a bad day, I can attempt to resolve my client’s problems so it becomes a good day!

Meeting new clients has been from referrals by my previous clients. Can I adopt you into my network? Thanks.
