Bio
I am a Louisville-based commercial real estate advisor with Colliers Louisville specializing in landlord representation, retail leasing, and investment sales throughout the Kentucky market. As a Louisville native and graduate of the University of Kentucky, where I earned a Bachelor of Science in Accounting, I bring a strong financial and analytical perspective to advising clients on commercial real estate opportunities.
My practice focuses on representing landlords, investors, developers, and business owners in the leasing, acquisition, disposition, and repositioning of retail, mixed-use, and investment properties across the Louisville region. I work closely with property owners to develop leasing strategies, position assets competitively within the market, and attract quality tenants that drive long-term value.
In addition to landlord representation and investment sales, I regularly advise retail tenants, service-based operators, and expanding businesses on site selection and market strategy throughout the Louisville market. This experience provides valuable insight into tenant demand, market trends, and how to effectively merchandise and lease retail assets.
My approach is relationship-driven and advisory-focused, combining local market knowledge, financial analysis, and hands-on transaction experience to help clients navigate opportunities and maximize value through commercial real estate.
