Experience in sales, strong people skills, and knowledge of Western North Carolina allows me to be an excellent resource for both buyers and sellers. Quickly after being born in San Francisco, my Asheville parents relocated our family back to Buncombe County. With those deep roots in the area, it's hard not to smile at some of Asheville's newer "attractions". For example, my first job was pumping gas at the Pure Station on Sweeten Creek Road in Royal Pines. I didn't remain a service station attendant for too long, in fact, I'm semi-retired from a 30 plus years career in the fire service. I say semi-retired because I'm still a semi-active member today. My ability to solve "burning" problems and lead a team were two of the reasons I was promoted to Deputy Chief at Skyland Fire after ten years of service. In 1988, Skyland Fire was annexed into the City of Asheville and the Asheville Fire Department became my home until I retired in 2006 as a Division Chief. After years fighting fires in the area, I definitely have an exciting story or two about most neighborhoods in Asheville. After my official retirement, I spent eight years as the National Sales Director with a Raleigh-based software company successfully selling emergency services software to fire and EMS based departments all over the United States. I am excited to be working with Allen Tate / Beverly-Hanks; I've always enjoyed serving others, and I can't think of anything better than helping people to buy and sell homes. I'm eager to put my deeply rooted knowledge of the area, my sense of service, and sales experience to work for you. Give me a call today. I have worked in the real estate business now for many years, with my past experiences working with people and my knowledge of Western North Carolina, I know I can help the buyers and sellers achieve their goals in real estate.
