The perspective
I see the potential others miss.
My career spans public service, corporate portfolios, brokerage, infrastructure, and entrepreneurship. That range lets me evaluate real estate from every side of the table—owner, occupier, broker, investor, and public-sector partner.
Today, I serve as a Realty Specialist with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and as Managing Broker of Big Urban Realty. I’m building toward a larger vision: investing in and developing value-add multifamily, retail, and industrial assets that create lasting wealth and strengthen overlooked communities.
