About
I’ve built my career around land and the people connected to it. As a Certified Land Specialist and Managing Broker for Mossy Oak Properties Indiana Land & Lifestyle and Illinois Land & Lifestyle, I lead a team of over 30 agents across two states while continuing to work directly with buyers and sellers.
From 2017 through 2025, I’ve sold more than 27,000 acres across Indiana and Illinois. My business has been built on production, relationships, and doing things the right way. I’ve consistently ranked as a top-producing agent in Indiana and one of the leading volume producers in the THAAR MLS.
My experience covers everything from large-scale farmland transactions and 1031 exchanges to hunting properties and rural homes. Whether it’s helping a farmer expand their operation, guiding a family through a land transition, or marketing a high-value recreational property, I bring structure, strategy, and negotiation to every deal.
Beyond transactions, I spend a lot of time working on land management. Each year, I host a Field Day at our Proven Grounds property, where we share real-world strategies for habitat improvement, food plots, timber management, and wildlife development. I don’t just sell hunting farms, I actively work on improving them.
