Fifteen-plus years in real estate. Which followed two decades as a print journalist and freelance writer. For several years I wrote articles ABOUT real estate for the Denver Post. That led me to ghost-writing investor manuals, then investing in flips, rentals, and new-builds. Licensed as real estate broker since 2011 and as a Class C general contractor since 2014. I am an accomplished bluegrass banjo player, an avid skier, and an appreciator of life and friends and family.
