Meet Steve

Born in Fort Monmouth, New Jersey, and raised across the United States as part of a military family, I developed a strong sense of discipline and adaptability from an early age. After graduating from Hixson High School, I proudly served in the United States Navy, primarily assigned to the Marine Corps. This experience not only instilled a commitment to service but also a dedication to excellence in everything I do.
 
Following my military service, I earned a degree from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga and began my professional journey as a Certified Public Accountant. My career path evolved over the years, taking me into engineering and operations, where I worked in Tennessee, Arizona, Mexico, Colorado, and California. These roles allowed me to develop a deep understanding of both financial management and large-scale project coordination.
 
Eventually, my passion for construction led me to become a Tennessee-licensed home inspector. This role gave me a firsthand understanding of home quality, safety, and integrity—knowledge I now leverage as a Realtor. Since becoming a licensed Realtor in 2015, I have focused on helping first-time homebuyers and veterans find homes they truly love.
 
My clients benefit from my unique blend of financial expertise, construction insight, and a genuine commitment to their best interests. I am particularly passionate about guiding veterans and first-time buyers through the process, ensuring they feel confident and well-informed every step of the way.
Outside of real estate, I enjoy playing golf and, most importantly, spending time with my granddaughter, especially taking her to school each day—a cherished part of my daily routine.
