Executive Summary
As a native of Spring Lake, NC with over two decades of experience in engineering, real estate development, and government project management, I bring a uniquely qualified perspective to guide the successful development of land in Spring Lake. My expertise spans technical, financial, and operational domains, equipping me to manage the entire lifecycle of a land development project—from entitlement through construction to final sale.

Local Advantage
Being born and raised in Spring Lake provides both a personal commitment and practical advantage. I understand the local market, political dynamics, and how to work positively with the Spring Lake Town Council and Cumberland County Planning Boards.
Locale specific achievements include:
