Education: BA - Finance and Business Management at Coastal Carolina University (2003) First job outside of real estate: Professional Baseball Player (minor league) First job in real estate or allied field: Sales Associate at Pyramid Brokerage Company/Cushman & Wakefield What do you do now and what are you planning for the future? I am enjoying selling and leasing commercial real estate in the upstate N.Y. area and continue to do this for awhile. How do you unwind from a busy day in real estate? I put on my "daddy" hat and come home to help my wife, Megan, out with my 4 month old daughter, Natalie. No matter how the day went it is impossible to not have a smile on my face when I come home and see my daughter. Favorite book or author: Anything written by Dean Koontz Favorite movie: "For Love of the Game" Last song you purchased/downloaded? I can't remember specifically but I enjoy a wide range of music. My wife and I enjoy watching "The Voice" also. One word to describe your work environment: Fun Rules to live by in business: You get out what you put in If you could invite one person to dinner (living or dead) who would it be and where would you go? Jesus Christ - I'd let him suggest where to go. What is your dream job? Major League Baseball Player was always my dream job. I guess now it would be General Manager of the New York Yankees.
