I took early retirement as a senior geophysicist from a major oil company in 1986.  I soon realized what I missed most was working with and helping people, so I became a Realtor in 1987.To expand my real estate expertise,  I have and will continue to attend a variety of real estate courses.  Of special note, I am a Graduate of the Realtor's Institute (GRI designation), a graduate of Floyd Wickman's "Star Training", a graduate of Keith Donaldson's Appraisal School,  and recently received my SFR (Short Sales and Foreclosure Resources) designation. My goal is to always be on top of market trends to better serve you, the customer.
