A little bit about me...
I’m an East Bay native with deep roots in the communities I serve and a lifelong connection to real estate. Growing up around three generations of real estate investors gave me an early understanding of the value of property ownership, smart strategy, and building long-term wealth.
Before real estate, I developed my skills as a leader and negotiator through experiences that shaped my approach today. As a former San Diego State football captain and Defensive MVP, I learned the discipline, preparation, and commitment required to perform at the highest level. I later became one of the youngest sales leaders at Fortune 500 company Paychex, where I built a strong foundation in business strategy, communication, and client advocacy.
Today, I bring that same mindset to helping buyers and sellers navigate the East Bay real estate market. I combine local expertise, data-driven insight, and strategic negotiation to create a seamless experience tailored to each client’s goals.
As part of Cush Real Estate by Design, I provide my clients with access to exceptional marketing, design expertise, and a proven process built to deliver outstanding results. Whether you’re purchasing your first home, relocating, or selling a property, my goal is to provide trusted guidance and a level of service that exceeds expectations.
Outside of real estate, I enjoy spending time with my wife Courtney, our daughter Na’riyah, and our dogs. I’m passionate about fitness, personal growth, mentorship, and helping others create opportunities through real estate.
For me, real estate is about more than transactions. It’s about relationships, trust, and helping people build the future they envision.
