As a young man I determined that I wanted to lead and serve others and my country and I pursued this tirelessly. Thankfully, I was given the opportunity to serve in this capacity in the military, and for the past 13 years I led thousands of people as a Surface Warfare and Navy SEAL Officer.Growing up in Pennsylvania I had a strong desire to serve my country and ultimately determined that I wanted to lead in the Special Warfare community. Most of my career has been spent leading SEALs, traveling the globe conducting counter terrorism operations, as well as working with foreign nation's militaries and US intelligence agencies.The military took my childhood sense of adventure, desire to travel, and always being challenged to the next level. As I transition from the military I am excited to build and acquire companies that embraces the same community values I have grown accustomed to - diverse teams, inclusion, always aiming above the status quo, and have a strong purpose to make a difference in the world.Over the past seven years, I have spent much of my free time doing real estate financial analysis and modeling for friends and family, and I truly enjoy this type of work. A few years ago, I recognized my passion for this and started Main Street Value Partners, LLC - a real estate investment and private equity company. My partner and I developed teams in two metropolitan cities where they are currently finding properties that meet our investment criteria.I can be counted on to get things done efficiently and lead others to do the same. I am adept at using sound reasoning to identify the basic components of a complicated situation, process, event, or decision, and describe it in a way that is easy for people to understand. I thrive in leading small groups / teams where I am able to pair individuals’ strengths to a task / job for maximum productivity, and where I can develop a close relationship and understanding of them. I am constantly establishing / updating daily and weekly objectives for my team and looking for progress towards our goal.Gallup Strengths: Analytical | Relator | Achiever | Discipline | Arranger
