Why did you decide to get into Commercial Real Estate?

I became very interested in real estate during college while leasing/managing apartments near campus. After speaking with contacts in the business I was intrigued by the idea of beginning a career in an industry that is exciting, constantly evolving, and has essentially no limit on growth potential.

Why did you decide to make Columbus your home?

I initially moved to Columbus to attend The Ohio State University. It didn’t take long to realize how special this place is. Between the people and the city itself I knew I wanted to put down roots here.

Where do you like to vacation?

The Caribbean and other warm/tropical climates to take a break from Ohio winters. Also Colorado to visit family and enjoy the mountains.

What is your favorite hidden gem in Columbus?

The Pub Out Back – Old Worthington.
