Where I came from, who I am, where am I now:

Having been in the medical field, specializing in biomechanical and surgical treatment of foot conditions, I retired from active practice after 35 years and sold my Podiatry practice to my partner.

I have been a lifetime resident of Cedar Rapids graduating from Regis High School, Loras College in Dubuque, and medical school in Illinois. I practiced Podiatry from our main office in Cedar Rapids, with satellite offices in Anamosa and Manchester. Thus serving the community and surrounding areas. I have been president of The Linn County Podiatric Medical Society as well as serving as state President of The Iowa Podiatric Medical Society. I am board certified by The American Council of Podiatric Physicians and Surgeons.

Community Involvement:

Board Member and founder of The Cedar Rapids Junior Golf Association 1990-present. Member of Cedar Rapids Jaycees and became JCI Senator (Highest award given nationally in Jaycee organization). Board member and founding member of Amana Colonies golf course and current chairman of United Way Campaign, diabetic awareness, Toys for Tots, youth football program and junior achievement.

I have represented Iowa and Cedar Rapids in state and national golf tournaments. Locally I have won the Cedar Rapids Amateur twice and The City Senior Amateur 7 times. I have been the state representative to The United State Senior Amateur twice.

I am now involved in residential, farm, and commercial real estate. Primarily to stay involved with the wonderful people of Cedar Rapids and surrounding communities that I have met through years of medical practice, community involvement, and competing in golf.

I am a very self competitive individual which motivates me to be the very best I can be at what ever I do.

I have always enjoyed helping people and believe the real estate profession will be a new way for me to do just that.
