My Story

Highly motivated individual with a wide range of passions. I proudly grew up on a farm showing livestock around the country and am still active with the farm today. Fell into multifamily in college at Purdue University and was hooked. In my off time, I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling to new places (currently national parks are on my radar), and anything outdoors.
