Before becoming a broker, I worked in the third-party logistics and transportation industry for several years. That experience gave me some tools and insight that I use all the time now in service of my clients in regard to warehousing, supply-chain networks and site selection. I found my niche in industrial brokerage, particularly, after joining NAI Hiffman in 2015. The entrepreneurial aspect of the business means that I can make a direct impact for my clients. I always focus on communication, responsiveness and honesty, and it’s an approach that brings results. I became a partner/shareholder at NAI Hiffman in 2019, which was both an honor and a personal milestone, but also a continuing challenge to succeed on behalf of my clients, my family and my colleagues.

If I weren’t a broker, I’d be taking my shot on the professional bass fishing circuit. If I weren’t in Chicago, I’d be living somewhere much, much warmer. I love my job, though, and working as an industrial broker in this market is fascinating, challenging and rewarding. I’ve had an independent and competitive streak since I was young, and I gravitate toward hobbies, projects and work where I can succeed through focus and hard work. I was about seven years old the first time I fished; I was at a lake with six or seven of my cousins. One of the adults brought a single fishing pole for the group to share, but I wasn’t interested in waiting around. The fervor eventually died down, my cousins lost interest, and I decided to give it a shot. I remember thinking to myself, “I’m going to catch more fish than everyone, combined,” and I stood on the dock for literally two hours. That still sums me up pretty well – I can’t say exactly where it came from, but I’ve got an interior drive like a little personal trainer in my head that gets me going and won’t let me rest until I’ve solved a problem, or reached a goal I’ve set for myself.
