The best compliment my clients pay to me is that “I sure don’t act like a salesperson”. A few of my professional achievements:
- RE/MAX International Hall of Fame (Since 1994)

Quarter Century Club (Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver)
-
Gold Master Medallion Club (REBGV)

Charity is something which I stongly believe in. Having first been introduced to the desperate circumstances in El Salvador several years ago, my wife and I have become advocates for the poor in that country. I try to take time to raise an awareness to the plight of the world's poorest and would welcome the opportunity to speak to you or your group about how you can help. I would also urge you to checkout www.kiva.org for information on Micro-loans and how you can make a difference.
