My goal is to build long-term wealth using the BRRRR strategy—buying underperforming properties, rehabbing with discipline, refinancing responsibly, and holding for durable cash flow.I invest in both single-family homes and small multifamily properties, primarily within the workforce housing space, where fundamentals support stable demand and long-term ownership.I’m a lawyer by training and a healthcare executive by profession, which shapes how I approach investing: conservative underwriting, strong contracts, risk mitigation, and operational rigor.

I will not be charged with bankruptcy fraud.
