What led you to your current profession?
I was initially drawn to real estate after learning about how my grandfather started his real estate business. After seeing firsthand how my father along with our partners started Lancewood Capital, I got more interested. It felt like a natural path for me to follow and I couldn’t be happier that I did. Being able to meet new and interesting people every day makes this business fun and rewarding.

My bucket list consists of the following: Getting good enough at golf to not have to ask how many strokes I get in a round; traveling to Japan; and living in a foreign country at some point for an extended period of time.
