About Me

As a seasoned Commercial Real Estate Broker with over a decade of experience, I specialize in Multi-Family and Investment Sales, Land Development, Luxury Home Sales, and Sports and Entertainment. My career is driven by a passion for real estate and a commitment to delivering exceptional results for my clients.

My journey began with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from the University of Maryland, followed by an MBA in Marketing from Southeastern University. This strong academic background has equipped me with a comprehensive understanding of market dynamics, financial analysis, and strategic marketing.

Throughout my career, I have built a reputation for my strategic insight, exceptional client service, and ability to close complex deals in a competitive market. Whether identifying profitable multi-family opportunities, evaluating investment prospects, navigating zoning laws for land development, or connecting high-net-worth individuals with luxury homes, I am dedicated to providing customized solutions that drive superior returns on investment.

I am proud to have represented numerous high-profile clients in the sports and entertainment industry, offering discretion, professionalism, and a commitment to confidentiality. As an active member of the National Association of Realtors (NAR), Greater Capital Area Association of Realtors (GCAAR), Northern Virginia Association of Realtors (NVAR), Atlanta Commercial Board of Realtors (ATLCBR), and the CCIM Institute Mid-Atlantic Chapter, I stay ahead of industry trends and maintain best practices.

Beyond my professional life, I am deeply committed to giving back to the community. I founded the Annie Lloyd Johnson Foundation, Inc., which provides financial scholarships to underserved students, and I serve on the board of the Daniel Alexander Payne Community Development Corporation, Real Estate Development. I also enjoy traveling, spending time with my family, and supporting youth programs.

With a steadfast dedication to excellence and a comprehensive understanding of the commercial real estate landscape, I am committed to helping my clients achieve their real estate goals and exceed their expectations. Let's connect and explore how I can assist you with your real estate needs.
