Sales Manager | Broker | Walnut Cove Realty I’m the Sales Manager at Walnut Cove Realty and an active broker serving Asheville and Western North Carolina. Walnut Cove Realty is the region’s #1 luxury boutique brokerage, and my experience includes luxury homes, legacy properties, and real estate investments across the market. I moved to Asheville nine years ago as the General Manager of The Cliffs at Walnut Cove, which gave me a deep understanding of luxury communities, land, and what truly drives long-term value. Today, I work with investors, second-home buyers, and full-time residents, bringing a practical, straightforward perspective to every transaction. I stay closely connected to market trends while remaining directly involved in deals, allowing me to offer clear guidance without the noise. Outside of real estate, I’m married to a Mission Hospital nurse and am a proud dad to two middle-school daughters. Asheville isn’t just where I work—it’s home.

Growing up in the Pinehurst area, and living there a good portion of my life, I am very familiar with nearly every square inch of Moore County and surrounding areas. I pride myself in over-informing my clients and being available within minutes. I make sure that you understand every stage of the home buying, or selling, process before we get into the transaction, I handle the stresses of negotiation, inspections, pricing, etc, and I'll be in contact with lenders, lawyers, vendors throughout the entire process. I've sold listings in Moore, Montgomery, and Richmond Counties of N.C., including dual agency in two of those listings. I've also helped several buyers, including Veterans relocating, and civilians from out of state make the Sandhills area their home. I'd be happy to provide a free Comparable Market Analysis to gauge market value of the home you are selling or the home you wish to buy to know with confidence what price to list at or to offer. Live out of state, or country? Through Keller Williams extensive referral program, I can help you find a trusted, and highly productive agent or real estate team to help you buy or sell anywhere in the world. I'd love to earn your business. Shoot me a call, text, or email today and lets get started. Thank you for your time!
