I came to Atlanta for good.

I didn’t come to real estate the usual way, and I didn’t come to Atlanta the usual way either. I lived all over the country before I landed here a decade ago, and this is the place I chose. I’m not leaving.

Before I became an agent, I spent years building the operational infrastructure that makes large real estate organizations run. As a C-suite executive at a large brokerage group, I oversaw operations across multiple offices and more than 2,500 agents across three states. I ran the business side and did not carry a personal book, which is exactly why I see things most agents don’t.

Before that, I ran full listing operations for a top Atlanta intown team. Staging direction, pre-market repairs, photography coordination, pricing strategy, contract management from offer through close, across 161 homes and more than $114 million in sales. I’ve been inside more transactions, from more angles, than most agents will see in a career. I know what separates the homes that sell in a weekend from the ones that sit for months, and I know what kills a deal before the offer is even written.

I also come from brand strategy and creative direction. I’ve spent years thinking about how things look, how they’re presented, and why some things stop you and others disappear. That eye is at the center of how I present a home.

I’m picky about who I work with, on purpose. I want buyers who are choosing Atlanta and plan to stay, and sellers who cared about their home and want it in good hands. That’s the work I love, and it’s how a city gets better, one house at a time. It’s also how I can promise your home, or your search, gets my full attention rather than a slice of it.

I live in Midtown, which means I know the intown market the way you only can when you’re actually in it. Inman Park, Virginia Highland, Morningside, Old Fourth Ward, Poncey-Highland, Grant Park, Reynoldstown, Candler Park. These are neighborhoods I move through every day. I know what they feel like at different price points, different times of year, and in different market conditions.

I’m also a gay man. My husband and I have been married since before Obergefell v. Hodges, back when it meant going to New Mexico to do it. I mention it because I don’t believe in hiding who I am, and because for a lot of the people I work with, having an agent who simply gets it makes the whole thing easier. Whoever you are, you’ll be represented as exactly that.

If you’re looking for an agent who will hustle volume and hand you a checklist, I’m probably not the right fit. If you’re looking for someone who will be fully present, completely prepared, and focused on where you’ll actually stay, let’s talk.
