With over 35 years in the Title Insurance industry, I bring experience and seasoning to the closing table. Started out the day I got out of High School and have loved this business ever since. Several years were spent closing US Homes back in the early 80's. Fell in love with Commercial transactions in the RTC days. Have successfully managed 2 title companies in a more rural, small town setting. That has led to great exposure to mineral pipeline, leasing and complex surveying challenges. Very involved with TLTA on several committees whose focus is serving the Real Estate community.
