I am dedicated to selling your home, farm, acreage or finding you that dream property you are searching for. You are invited to browse my website and call or email me with any questions you have about buying or selling a home in the area

I grew up on a farm, lived and went to NAIT in Edmonton and currently live on an acreage close to Thorsby. My rural background, business experience and life path have given me tons of experience in a variety of different areas. I am very familiar with drilled wells, sewer systems, land types, buildings, and most things associated with rural properties. I have been in business since 1986 and have had excellent training to help you with any commercial needs. After high school I was employed with a lumber company and worked for several construction people so I am very familiar with building practices and methods. There may be things I don't know but I promise you a willingness to find the answers you need using good common sense.

My family has been in the Thorsby area for three generations and my children are the fourth. This community has been our home and I have been actively involved in making it stronger. Since 1986, I have purchased 4-H animals and supported the 4-H program every year. When I was a member of the Agricultural Society, I helped to secure several grants that allowed us to build a beautiful indoor arena, barns and other equipment. My love for sports led me to compete in baseball, football, hockey and even team roping and other rodeo events. I founded and started the Thorsby Haymakers Rodeo. I was also very involved in minor hockey in Thorsby. Coaching and being on the executive kept me very busy. I applied for and received the first NHLPA goals and dreams grant in Alberta. With provincial government grants and our own fund raising this allowed us to purchase new arena boards and a new Zamboni. When our sons moved to Leduc to play on more competitive teams, I followed along coaching Pee Wee AA and Bantam AAA. I still volunteer with the Leduc Riggers Hockey Club. I was very active in organizing The Telus Cup 2012 in Leduc. This National Hockey Canada event was very successful and we were able to donate over $100,000 in profit back to minor hockey in Leduc. For my efforts as a volunteer I was nominated in 2010 for a provincial volunteer recognition award. I was notified by the Minister of Tourism Parks and Recreation that I was one of 4 people chosen annually to receive this award. In October 2010 I was presented the Recreation Volunteer Recognition Award at a ceremony in Jasper. This is something I will always be proud of. Time has passed and I don't compete like I used to but my passion for sports has carried on to my children. My oldest son Brandon is playing hockey for Leduc Junior B Riggers and is playing fastball in Leduc as well. In 2010-2011-2012 his fastball team Irma Tigers won 3 Provincial Titles and attended National in Eastern Canada. In the past he has played in Northern Alberta Allstars and Team Brick of Edmonton. My youngest son Carson plays with the Leduc Riggers and has also competed with Northern Alberta Allstars and Team Brick. Carson played Midget AAA in Leduc and was fortunate to play in a provincial final and also The Telus Cup a National Championship Tournament for Midget AAA. Through our sports we have traveled from Vancouver to Halifax and this association has been great for our family. My daughter is an athlete as well. She has played girls Bantam AAA won a provincial championship in Leduc, won Edmonton minor Hockey Week with Leduc, and now plays on a Junior A team in Thorsby. She plays fastball as well and was fortunate to play in provincials and the Alberta Summer Games. Kaylyn loves horses and has been Team Roping and Barrel Racing the last few years. Sports has been great for our family, we have made a tremendous group of friends and have memories to last a lifetime.

My business experience has been very diverse. I have owned 3 NAPA auto parts stores, one in Thorsby, one in Wetaskiwin and the other in Breton. My association with the auto parts business has been since 1981. I have been a dealer for Radio Shack, Star Choice, Pop Shoppe, Boc Welding Product. Exmark and Husqvarna Lawn and Garden. Each of these lines have have given me more experience to pass on to my real estate clients. When I offer advice it is usually because I have experience in that specific area.

I have been a licensed realtor for over 9 years and have developed my own unique approach to doing real estate. I MAKE IT SIMPLE AND EASY. My favourite saying is “it’s your land” or “it’s your money” and I will treat you that way.  I will make recommendations and give advice, but at the end of the day you will not be forced into doing anything you are not comfortable with.  I will be extremely honest and up front with you in all our dealings.  I have an excellent reputation in this industry and my trading area. I want to keep it that way.  I have attained several awards including Top 100 in Canada and Top 5 in the Alberta Capital Region.  Hard work, efficiency, good help and a proven system make it simple to get the job done right.  My outlook is always positive, and I make Real Estate Buying or Selling easy.
