At The Real Estate Collaborative, I’m grateful to have the opportunity to bring together different threads; technology, creativity, problem-solving, and a deep respect for the meaning of place to help people find homes that reflect who they are and who they’re becoming.

I’ve spent my life following two parallel callings, technology and creativity. My degree in Management of Information Systems from the University of Texas led to a career in IT consulting and recruiting, but the creative current was always there, shaping my love of storytelling, design, and the idea of home itself. In 2025, my partner, Ashley, and I made a major life decision to move from Texas and after a year-long “city interview tour” exploring communities across the country, we chose the Twin Cities. Our move from Austin, TX was influenced by many factors from culture and nature to community, and when we landed in St. Paul, something clicked. Minnesota didn’t just feel like a new chapter. It felt like home.

Over the years, Ashley and I have bought, remodeled, and sold multiple properties, including a Hill Country Airbnb that became a true labor of love, which showed me how real estate brings together everything I value: beauty, history, community, and creative new beginnings. That’s why Minnesota’s historic homes and architectural character felt like an instant fit, and why I’m honored to help others find the spaces where their own stories can unfold.

WHY HOME MATTERS
I’ve always felt that the spaces we inhabit shape the stories we tell, sometimes subtly, sometimes profoundly and home is the quiet engine of that creativity. It’s where we rest, recalibrate, and dream. Everyone deserves a place that supports them, inspires them, and gives them the freedom to be fully themselves.

Home isn’t just shelter. It’s the starting point of our stories. It’s where our lives unfold and where our imaginations stretch. When we find the right home that offers comfort, inspiration, and possibility, it doesn’t just change our address. It changes our trajectory.
