Helping people build wealth, find home, and connect deeper with the communities they love. Real estate is more than a transaction—it's strategy, lifestyle, and long-term impact. Compass Real Estate | Rhode Island & Southeastern Massachusetts Born on the East Side of Providence and raised between Seekonk and summers in Narragansett, I’ve always had a deep connection to the communities I now serve professionally. I’m a top-producing real estate advisor with Compass, and over the past eight years, I’ve closed hundreds of transactions across Rhode Island and Southeastern Massachusetts—from city condos and first-time homes to luxury coastal listings and high-performing multifamily investments. With a degree in Economics from the University of Connecticut, I bring a financial lens to every deal. I specialize in multifamily and investment properties and pride myself on breaking down CAP rates, NOI, and return potential in a way that’s easy to understand. Whether it’s guiding a first-time buyer into their first condo, structuring a complex investment deal, or positioning a multi-million-dollar listing for maximum value, I approach every client and price point with the same strategy, care, and attention to detail. Before real estate, I invested in multifamily housing myself and owned a neighborhood grocery and sandwich shop on Wickenden Street—an experience that grounded me in the Providence small business community and reinforced my belief in local connection and service. I also served on the Providence City Planning Commission, gaining insight into zoning, development patterns, and long-term city growth—knowledge that gives my clients an edge in an evolving market. My clients describe my style as calm, informed, and genuinely enjoyable to work with. I keep the process clear, organized, and even fun, blending market expertise with a steady, upbeat approach. I live on the East Side near Brown University with my wife Jennifer, our daughter Ophelia, and our dog Huckleberry. Outside of real estate, you’ll find me walking the neighborhood, supporting local restaurants and coffee shops, or catching a game. I’m a lifelong Providence Friars basketball fan, a Rhode Island FC supporter, a dedicated men’s league basketball regular—and yes, pickleball is officially creeping into my life. If you love Rhode Island, believe in community, or want to talk real estate strategy—from first-time buying to building a portfolio—let’s connect.
