I’ve called Columbus home for over 20 years, long enough to know that every neighborhood has a personality and every market cycle has a mood. Nearly a decade into real estate, I use that local insight to help clients make smart, confident moves without the noise, pressure, or guesswork that so often comes with buying or selling a home.
Before real estate, I built my career in marketing and advertising, and that background is my not-so-secret weapon. I don’t just put homes on the market and hope for the best. I think in terms of positioning, pricing strategy, buyer psychology, and demand creation. Translation: better exposure, stronger leverage, and cleaner outcomes for my clients.
I’ve helped more than 400 clients buy and sell over $120 million in real estate across Central Ohio, consistently ranking in the top 2% of agents in the Columbus market. I’m known for proactive communication (you’ll never wonder where things stand) and sharp negotiation skills that protect my clients’ interests and maximize results, especially when the stakes are high.
Clients often tell me the same things: I’m calm when things get tense, direct when decisions matter, and strategic when others are reactive. That approach has earned over 100 five-star Zillow reviews and long-term relationships that extend well beyond the closing table.
Real estate is a big decision. It deserves more than a sign thrown in the yard, generic advice, and crossed fingers. If you’re looking for an advisor who combines local expertise, modern marketing, and straight-talk guidance with a little personality, I’d love to work with you.
The oldest of 8 children, Michael was born and raised in Celina, Ohio and moved to Columbus to pursue a degree in Professional Sales and Computer Science. While working in a corporate position at BMW Financial, Michael simultaneously took on a project management and design role with a local real estate development company. This juxtaposition of roles helped Michael recognize that his passion for people was not leveraged in more technical sales roles and that a career in real estate would allow him to create more intimate and impactful relationships with individuals. Michael has a keen understanding for how a physical space can affect an individual on an emotional level, which allows him to make relationships that go beyond a transaction. Michael’s eagerness to serve, tenacious drive, and bubbly personality make him a quick favorite with everyone he has the pleasure of working with.
