Masters In Real Estate

Entering the real estate realm immediately following a bachelor’s degree in economics from the University of Utah, I quickly recognized my passion wasn’t brokering deals and flipping houses. I enjoyed the segments of development and investment management significantly more than transactional business. However, During my time as a broker, I managed the acquisition and disposition of a variety of assets – from self-storage facilities, apartment communities, sprawling suburban subdivisions, and industrial complexes totaling over $50M. These experiences gave me a full understanding of the real estate market’s complexities. Along the way, I knew I needed to develop my own track record of going ‘full cycle’ on deals, so I began flipping houses and became very familiar with construction management and financial modeling. Although renovating homes was a great experience, we decided to move away from the high risk, and even higher leverage properties into more long term natured projects.
