About
Three decadesof Orlando
Three decades
of Orlando
I grew up in Central Florida. I've been in the real estate industry since 1996, as a mortgage broker, a nationwide mobile closing company owner, a transaction coordinator, and now a realtor. I didn't just learn this business from a textbook. I learned it from the inside out.
For 23 years I ran APAT Real Estate Settlement Services, a mobile closing company coordinating closings nationwide. That background gave me a deep understanding of the transaction process from every angle. I've been a licensed Realtor since 2012, and today I specialize in relocation and new construction throughout Central Florida.
My Economics degree from Florida A&M gave me an analytical foundation, but what really drives the work is a genuine love for researching communities and understanding their history, how they've evolved, and what makes each one distinct. That curiosity is the nerdy backend behind every neighborhood guide on this site.
The Path Here
From the closing table forward
Real Estate Sales
Started at Reliance Realty as a transaction coordinator for an RE attorney/broker, then became a listing agent negotiating short sales. Developed hedge fund and investor relationships, closing 200+ short sales in two years. Pivoted to Instagram and social media marketing, building a global relocation network.
APAT Settlement Services
Grew a mobile notary practice into a nationwide mobile closing company and ran it for 23 years, alongside mortgage brokering in the early years and real estate sales after 2012. Built and trained notary teams nationwide, coordinating closings for mortgage brokers, title companies, and real estate brokerages across the country, including London, England and Puerto Rico. With loan packages running about 100 pages, where one mistake could keep a deal from funding, created a system to proof every package before it went back to the title company, so rejected deals were rare.
Mortgage & Closings
Senior Mortgage Broker at PMC Lending, handling refinancing and conventional loans with a specialty in bankruptcy. Founded Statewide Closers, a mobile notary closing company that grew to cover all Florida counties and eventually expanded nationwide as APAT Settlement Services.

Discretion
Trusted with high-profile moves
A portion of my clients are public figures, athletes, entertainers, and executives whose moves require a higher level of privacy. That work stays quiet by design.
Past clients have included Olympic and professional athletes who've trusted me with discreet relocations. Whether you're a first-time buyer or someone who needs the transaction handled with more care than most, the process looks the same: research-driven, honest, and on your terms.
