I was asked by a neighbor right after graduating college what I planned to do with myself. As one might expect, I had no clue. I was a waiter at a country club in Tampa, Florida, and had no real direction. My neighbor asked if I wanted to ride along while he went out for his appraisal inspections. I took him up on that offer and was immediately hooked. That was in 1998, and I\u2019ve been appraising ever since. I enjoy the freedom owning my own business gives me, and the challenges of our industry keep me on my toes. I wouldn\u2019t trade it for anything.<\/p>\n
My favorite flavor Starburst is strawberry.<\/p>\n
Characteristics I admire the most are honesty, humility, optimism, and reliability.<\/p>\n
If I could have lunch with anyone alive or dead, it would be Babe Ruth. I played baseball at the University of Tampa, where he hit his longest home run \u2013 587 feet.<\/p>\n
The superpower I would want the most is the power to heal (not sure if that\u2019s a power). I would never have to watch a loved one suffer in pain again.<\/p>\n
My favorite spot in the world is Key West, Florida. I\u2019m from Florida, but Key West has it all: swimming, fishing, night life, and a small town feel.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2501,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"content-type":"","om_disable_all_campaigns":false},"audiences":[],"topics":[35],"typs":[70],"class_list":["post-2499","content_hub","type-content_hub","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","topics-appraiser-spotlight","typs-articles-insights"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
