Born and raised in the North Carolina country, I moved to New York after attending East Carolina University on a football scholarship. While attending East Carolina I studied fine arts and art history, further developing my skills as an artist. Having always had a love of architecture and art, I decided to pursue real estate in the most exciting city in the world. Joining Christie Property Group is very exciting. However, upon arriving in NY I immediately became a member of the local 147 tunnel workers union as a Sandhog. Building New York City's subway tunnels and water tunnels for 5 years before becoming a member of Christie Property Group. Being around all walks of life I've established a great understanding of people and the world. I use these experiences in my everyday endeavors as a real estate agent, connecting with my clients in ways a normal agents can't or wouldn't. During my spare time, my interests include painting, football, and cooking. The painting is mainly abstract with oil paint and acrylic, the football is mostly a Fantasy League these days, and the cooking is basically a constant struggle not to make everything the southern way: fried.
