Thank You for Taking the Time to Get to Know Me

I’m proud to call Courtenay, British Columbia home, where I live with my wife Kim and our three wonderful children. In 2012, we made the move from the mainland to the Comox Valley to embrace the island lifestyle we had always dreamed of. This community holds deep roots for my family — our connection to Comox dates back to 1927 — and I spent every childhood summer exploring its beaches, especially the sandy shores of Kye Bay. This place has always been close to my heart, and I’m grateful to now call it home.

Before real estate, I built a diverse and rewarding career focused on service, hard work, and connection. I began as a child and youth care counselor, working with at-risk youth and children with special needs. In 2000, I followed my passion for food and trained as a chef, later owning and operating an award-winning restaurant in Fort Langley. After starting our family, I launched Coast Seafood Distributors, a successful food distribution company serving restaurants across the region.

Through all of these experiences, one constant was my love for real estate. After years of buying, selling, and investing — and with plenty of encouragement from my wife — I earned my real estate license in 2016 and haven’t looked back since. Today, I’m a full-time REALTOR® dedicated to helping people navigate the exciting and often life-changing journey of buying or selling a home on Vancouver Island.

My approach to real estate is simple: relationships first. I believe in listening before speaking, communicating with honesty, and guiding every client with care, professionalism, and integrity. My calm, practical nature and strong negotiation skills help my clients feel confident and supported every step of the way.

I’m committed to continual growth and professional excellence. Some of my recent designations and recognitions include:

  • SRES® – Seniors Real Estate Specialist

  • CLHMS® – Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist

  • CNE® – Certified Negotiation Expert

RE/MAX Awards:

  • 100% Club (2018)

  • Platinum Club (2019–2025)

  • RE/MAX Hall of Fame (2022)

For me, real estate isn’t just a career — it’s a passion. It’s about helping people find their place, make meaningful transitions, and build a future they’re excited about. Whether you’re buying, selling, or simply exploring your options, I’m here to provide honest advice, expert guidance, and dedicated support from start to finish.

Now that you know a bit about me, I’d love the chance to learn more about you.
Let’s connect — and start the conversation about your next move.
