License Realtor I am a REALTOR® with Fieldstone Real Estate Specialists, I hold a Minnesota real estate license. I have earned several professional certifications, including NAR's e-PRO®, as well as the ABR and PSA designations. Additionally, I am a Graduate of the REALTOR® Institute (GRI). Before transitioning into real estate, I spent 22 years working in a bakery manufacturing plant In 2016, during what I jokingly refer to as my "mid-life crisis," I made the bold decision to change careers. It was one of the best decisions I ever made, and it has proven to be both rewarding and fulfilling. When I committed to this new path, I vowed to go above and beyond for both my career and my clients' needs. Currently, I am an active member of the St. Paul, MN Area Association of REALTORS® (SPAAR), serving on the Board of Directors, the Community Engagement Committee, and as the 2024 Chair of the Metro YPN. I also completed the leadership training program and served one year on the Government Affairs Committee. In 2024, I received the prestigious William Tschohl/James Stanton Distinguished Service Award, and I will be serving as Treasurer on the 2025 SPAAR Leadership Team. Within MN Realtors, I contribute to several committees, including Member Engagement, Strategic Planning, Professional Standards, and Professional Development. I also serve on the Board of Directors. On the national level, I am involved with NAR, serving on the Research Committee and having previously served on the Safety Advisory Committee. I am a C2EX Endorsed REALTOR® and proudly serve as a C2EX Ambassador for the State of Minnesota. I am honored to be a three-time winner of the Dakota County Tribune’s "Best of" Real Estate Agent award for Farmington and Rosemount. Outside of real estate, I’m a proud husband and father of two boys. In my spare time, I enjoy exercising, leveraging my background as a former NASM Personal Trainer to teach fitness classes at Assisted Living Facilities. I also enjoy golfing occasionally and, of course, enduring the highs and lows of Minnesota’s sports teams—the Twins, Wild, and Vikings.
