If you’re looking for a typical high-pressure salesperson, I’m probably not your guy—and honestly, most of my clients prefer it that way.
Before becoming a Grand Rapids Real Estate Agent, my background was in the transportation industry working as a diesel mechanic and then in car sales. That experience shaped how I approach real estate today. Mechanics take complex systems apart, figure out how they work, and explain them in simple terms. That’s exactly how I guide my clients through buying or selling a home in Grand Rapids and West Michigan.
Real estate can feel overwhelming—contracts, inspections, negotiations, market trends—and my job is to make the process clear, calm, and manageable. Clients often tell me they appreciate that I’m patient, thorough, and never pushy, and always present when they need guidance. Many describe me as a steady, calming presence throughout the process, especially for first-time buyers and sellers, investors, or families relocating to the area.
Since becoming licensed in 2019, I’ve helped buyers, sellers, investors and relocation clients successfully navigate the West Michigan housing market. I’m proud to be part of the Glover Agency with Keller Williams and have been recognized as a Top 200 agent in Grand Rapids since 2021 and a Top 40 Under 40 agent in North America in 2022.
But titles aren’t really what matter most to me.
The farm and truck kid in me believes the job isn’t done until the work is finished—and sometimes that means doing things outside the normal job description. One recent example: after helping a single mom buy her home, I caught a mouse for her and installed a new lock so she could feel safe that first night. For me, helping people feel settled and confident in their home is the real finish line.
I’m also a bit of a self-described real estate nerd. I love studying the market, tracking data, and understanding how local trends affect buyers and sellers in Grand Rapids, Grandville, Hudsonville, Rockford, Ada, and surrounding West Michigan communities. I regularly share market updates and educational content online so people can make informed decisions about one of the biggest investments of their lives.
Personally, my faith plays a big role in how I do business. I try to live by the simple principle of treating others the way I’d want to be treated. That means honest advice, clear communication, and always putting my clients’ interests first.
When I’m not helping clients buy or sell homes in West Michigan, you’ll usually find me spending time with my wife Laura and our two young boys. Life with kids means there’s rarely a dull moment—and it’s a pretty great adventure.
If you’re thinking about buying, selling, or relocating to the Grand Rapids area, I’d be glad to help you make the process simple, clear, and successful.
