Hi, I'm Michael!


Mike moved to Colorado as part of a military Permanent Change of Station (PCS) in 2013; he and his Wife Clarissa found a home in the beautiful Black Forest and decided that this was the place for them to start their family. Mike and Clarissa have been happily married for 12 years, and they have two wonderful children: Izzy, who is 6 years old, and Alex, who is 3. As a retired Army Special Forces veteran, Mike brings dedication, discipline, and strategic thinking to his Associate Real Estate Broker role. His career in the military honed his skills in leadership, problem-solving, and commitment to excellence, all of which he now channels into helping families and individuals find their dream homes. Supported by his wonderful wife and their two children, Mike is deeply rooted in this community and passionate about making the home buying and selling process as seamless and rewarding as possible. With a focus on personalized service, integrity, and a mission-driven approach, Mike is here to serve your real estate needs with the same dedication that defined his military service.


Mike enjoys playing ice hockey, spending quality time with his family, camping, and traveling. After Clarissa and Mike spent over a year researching and locating an ideal home within the Black Forest that was within their budget, Mike developed a strong interest in real estate. This experience ignited his passion to help others navigate the complex and emotional journey of finding a home. Mike understands the importance of finding a place that fits a family’s budget and meets their unique needs and aspirations. He is committed to providing personalized service, ensuring each client feels supported and informed throughout the process.
