I am a thankful man whose intention it is to help and inspire others. God has blessed me with a kind heart. I hope to continue to both be blessed and be a blessing.
I am a Christian father of one son. I am a developing writer whom became a reluctant leader and business owner. As I grow in the faith, God blesses me with a team far wiser and better than I could ever be alone. I've worked as a credit analyst and lender before getting into heavily into real estate. As a serial entrepreneur, I have had one form of business or another since 1993. I enjoy working with the financial literacy initiatives through the non-profit I helped found. I love working with my church ministries. I now work to help secure financing, obtain support and project plan for small to medium size business through my company. I enjoy sharing my life's experiences and vast network of associates with others.
