Meet Chris
Born and Raised in Northern Nevada—Here to Help You Call It Home
I’m a proud Gardnerville native, raised in the heart of Northern Nevada. Growing up, you could usually find me skiing at Heavenly or Kirkwood, golfing at Genoa Lakes, or on the football field with the Douglas Tigers (Class of ''97—go Tigers!).
After graduating from Douglas High, I went on to earn a degree in Hotel & Restaurant Management from Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff.
While I had opportunities to build a career elsewhere, I chose to come back home—close to my roots, my family, and the community I love. The highlight of my life is my amazing wife of 17 years, Larae, and our incredible daughter, Minden (yes, she's so special they named a whole town after her!).
My professional journey began in finance. I was recruited by Edward Jones, where I earned my Series 7 and 66 licenses and helped clients manage their investments—from stocks and bonds to annuities and retirement planning. In 2011, one of my best friends started a real estate company and encouraged me to join. I took the leap, and I’ve never looked back.
Since then, I’ve helped countless buyers, sellers, and investors achieve their real estate and financial goals across Northern Nevada. Whether you’re a first-time homebuyer, a seasoned investor, or looking to sell, I bring over a decade of negotiation experience, honest communication, and a passion for helping people make smart, confident decisions.
