Aloha All! Here's my story....

Currently, I am a broker with John L. Scott real estate based in Puyallup, Washington. I am an active member of the National Association of Realtors and the Tacoma-Pierce County Association of Realtors. I am also certified as a Military Relocation Professional (MRP), and Short Sales and Foreclosure Resource (SFR). I am committed to servicing clients and turning dreams into reality.

From Palau and raised on Guam, I attended the University of Hawaii at Manoa where I received a BA in business administration. While pursing my undergraduate degree, I also attended night real estate pre-licensing courses – obtaining a real estate license in 2005. Feeling called to serve my country, I subsequently joined the Hawaii Air National Guard and later transferred to the Washington Air National Guard where I am currently serving. Helping clients, friends, and family reach their real estate goals is my top priority. I am also particularly passionate about helping fellow service men and women buy and sell homes.

As a lover of sports, I am active in volleyball, softball, and basketball leagues. I am also a supportive husband to my wife Amber and a hands-on dad to my six young children. I live by the saying “work hard, play hard” – setting the example for my family of what it means to have a strong work ethic, while also maintaining a work-life balance and staying active and present with my family!
