The market I work within is the Phoenix MSA. Retail is my speciality with a background  in retail tenant representation, pre-leasing, leasing, and land research and acquisition for development opportunities.

2. What’s your latest best practice tip that you can share?

My number one tip for all commercial real estate professionals is that when you get a call from a buyer, seller, landlord or tenant — Make sure to schedule a face-to-face meeting.  I have always found that you win more business by taking the time to meet, shake hands and discuss any and all CRE needs in person.

3. What’s been the biggest change over on how you run your business in the past decade?

For me, it has been qualifying my clients upfront.  Any CRE professional knows that we only have so much time in one day, and by taking the time to qualify clients first it allows me to focus on those deals that are actual and attainable.

4. What business book do you like to recommend to your colleagues?

“Think and Grow Rich,” by Napoleon Hill.  Although it was written back in 1937, the ideas and concepts are still inspiring and true in today’s world.

5. What’s a fun fact that not everyone knows about you?

I love to ride motocross.

1. What is your geographic market and product specialty? 

I exclusively focus on office and industrial properties in the metro Phoenix market.

2. What’s your latest best practice tip that you can share?

I have been utilizing post cards much more than in the past to reach out to owners and market myself and my team. Additionally, I have made it a point to actually drive to more properties to familiarize myself even more with my market in addition to cold calls from the desk.

3. What’s been the biggest changeover on how you run your business in the past decade?

Being in the business for just over eight years now, my biggest adjustment has been transitioning my role as a junior agent into a leader that is more vocal about how the team operates.

4. What business book do you like to recommend to your colleagues?

Neil Sherman in my office recently encouraged me to read Value Added, Successful Strategies for Listing & Selling Investment Real Estate, a book written by a previous Sperry Van Ness advisor, Brad Umansky. It is a great book if you are looking to simply get back to the basics.

5. What’s a fun fact that not everyone knows about you? 

I began working in the business directly out of college. Commercial Real Estate is my first and hopefully my last career.
