Tell us more about where you are from. Born and Raised in Massachusetts, I moved to the PNW in 2001 with my then girlfriend (she is now my wife). We lived in Shoreline for a year before buying a house in Brier. We now have lived in Bothell since 2009.
What I love about my profession: I love that no two days are ever the same. I get to meet all kinds of interesting people from all walks of life. The satisfaction that comes with helping people through what can be a very stressful time feels amazing. You never stop learning.
Other interests and hobbies? Gardening, working in the yard, building things and playing sports
Proudest moment: Becoming a dad 4 times over, and watching my children grow into responsible, caring people.
When I’m not working…You can find me working in the yard, cleaning up after said children, and coaching softball.
Favorite Destinations: I love heading back to the Boston area to visit friends and family. Other than that, there are no favorites. I want to see the world, experience new cultures, and discover interesting architecture.
Best advice: Treat people the way you want to be treated.
Hidden Talents: I’m beginning to discover that I’m a pretty good coach and I really enjoy it.
Nick Name: Dad
Fears: Death and taxes
Fun Fact: Banging your head against the wall burns 150 calories per hour
Guilty pleasures: Dark Chocolate
Something you probably shouldn’t have done: Eaten that last cookie…
Favorite Quote: I’m here to chew bubblegum and to kick some a**, and I’m all out of bubblegum. – Rowdy Roddy Piper
What makes John L Scott different? The atmosphere around my fellow JLS agents is amazing. Everyone is always willing to help and teach. The offices at Mukilteo and Bothell are always fun to be around. The training tools and education available at the corporate office are also top notch.
