More About Me

An Introduction

Service is more than a word to me — it's how I've spent my entire career.

As a former Mayor of Cincinnati and longtime City Council member, I know Greater Cincinnati's neighborhoods in a way few agents can: the development trends, the schools and parks, the policies and economic shifts that shape home values. Today, as Executive Sales Vice President with Sibcy Cline REALTORS®, I put that knowledge to work for buyers and sellers across Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky.

Clients relocating to Cincinnati tell me our first tour felt like a docent-led introduction to the city. If you're moving here for work or family, I'll help you compare neighborhoods honestly — commute, lifestyle, value — so you choose a community, not just a house.

If you're downsizing or ready for low-maintenance living, I specialize in condos and walkable neighborhoods on both sides of the Ohio River, from Hyde Park and Mt. Lookout to downtown, Over-the-Rhine, Covington, and Newport. Rightsizing is a life transition, not just a transaction, and I'll guide you through every step at your pace.

Whatever brings you to the market, you can count on three things: I listen first, I negotiate skillfully — a craft honed through years of public service — and I stay accessible from first conversation to closing.

With more than 290 homes sold and recognition in the Circle of Excellence every year since 2014, I'd be honored to help you achieve your dreams when buying or selling a home.
