As a real estate investor throughout the country for the past 15 years Gary understands the needs of his clients and strives every day to exceed their expectations. This desire to serve drove him to become a licensed Realtor. He recognizes and values the trust place in an agent when making one of the most important purchases of their life. Gary has a very diversified background of professional experiences. As a career Naval Officer and aviator, his unique experiences as a military leader make him a successful agent. As a graduate of the United States Fighter Weapons School (TOP GUN), he applies many of the methodologies and techniques learned to each real estate transaction. He always comes to the table with a well-defined strategy and a well thought out contingency plan if needed. He debriefs each transaction to get lessons learned that he can apply to improve his overall client relationship and achieve superior performance.
A lifelong learner, Gary graduated from the United States Air Force Academy in 2005 with a Bachelor of Science in Management. He holds master’s degrees in Systems Engineering from the George Washington University, Engineering Management from Old Dominion University, Defense and Strategic Studies from the United States Naval War College, and a Master’s of Business Administration from the Naval Postgraduate School. He has over 2000 flying hours in the E-2 Hawkeye, the Navy’s premier Carrier Airborne Early Warning Aircraft.
When not helping clients he dedicates time as veteran mentor through Veterati, helping service members create a successful transition out of the military. Gary lives in Newbury Park with his wife Christa, daughter Quinn, and their two puppies, Sadie and Winnie.
