Being raised on a recreational ranch property in east Texas I was heavily influenced by hunting and fishing at an early age. The desire continues today as I encourage my children to love the outdoors. I graduated from Baylor University with a BBA in business (Entrepreneurship and Real Estate). Since graduation, I have spent the last 18 years in the real estate industry both as a Broker and Certified General Appraiser. Over the past several years my appraisal work has been primarily in the farm and ranch sector working closely with various Farm Credit banks in the area and specializing in recreational properties with large water features. As a Whitetail Property Land Specialist, it is my hope that my knowledge and past experience will be an asset to both my clients and the team.
