He helped manage the largest real estate company in Nevada, which was also the fourth-busiest office in the nation for Better Homes and Gardens. During that time, he received numerous awards and trained hundreds of agents.Having raised their kids, and loving the ocean and forest more than desert and heat, he and his wife, Denise, relocated back to her original home in North Monterey County.
