Get to Know Me

He partnered with The Davenport Group at Compass, which is dedicated to curating exceptional real estate experiences that transcend mere transactions. With a passion for connecting clients to their dream homes, he specializes in waterfront properties, downtown condos, and luxury residences across the Tampa Bay area.
 
Originally from Winston-Salem, North Carolina, his journey to real estate excellence began with a solid foundation in economics from Washington & Lee University. His commitment to unparalleled customer service was honed during his tenure as a corporate trainer at the Ritz Carlton Hotel Company, LLC., where he implemented five-star service standards. Transitioning seamlessly into real estate in 2004, his career skyrocketed, boasting impressive sales figures and earning industry accolades, including Rookie of the Year for a Top Producing Luxury Boutique Agency and #1 Rookie in Florida.
 
As a premier agent, his expertise lies in luxury properties, particularly waterfront estates and gated communities. His deep-rooted connections with developers, builders, and a network of industry professionals ensure that his clients receive tailored, top-tier service at every turn. From coordinating with real estate attorneys to orchestrating stunning property staging, his meticulous attention to detail guarantees a seamless transaction from start to finish.
 
Beyond the world of real estate, he finds joy in his passion for dogs and the arts. A dedicated dog dad to his AKC Grand Champion boxers, he is actively involved in dog exhibitions and is a respected figure within the American Kennel Club and American Boxer Club communities. Additionally, his philanthropic endeavors extend to supporting animal welfare organizations such as the Humane Society of Tampa and various boxer rescue groups. As a patron of the arts, he serves on the boards of the Tampa Museum of Art and The Tampa Theatre, further enriching the cultural landscape of the Tampa Bay area.
 
With him and The Davenport Group, clients can expect not just a real estate transaction, but a bespoke journey tailored to their unique lifestyle aspirations.
