1101 Highway 169, Smithville, MO. 64089

I was born and raised in rural north-central Missouri, where hard work and honesty were part of everyday life. In 2008, my beautiful wife and my job brought me out of the small town and to the Kansas City Northland area.

In 2010, we began raising our family just down the road in Liberty, MO. We have three amazing children-- Ava Rae, Laney and James. They are very active, and passionate about sports and the great outdoors!

Before embarking on my real estate career, I spent several years in a corporate setting, working for a large logistics company. I am excited to be here at Show-Me Real Estate, where family and faith come first.

Now residing in the Smithville community, I look forward to meeting you and assisting you in your personal, business or investment property needs!
