I have a passion to live a balanced life with equal weight given to work, family, personal interests and community. Real estate offered me a career that allowed me to realize that passion. In 2005 I opened Rockwell Realty, which allowed me to develop a company that emphasized quality service to clients and brokers, while giving back to community.
I have worked as a full time real estate broker for over 30 years. The last 14 years I have owned Rockwell Realty, a small brokerage with an office in the Sunset Hill neighborhood of Ballard. I have personally sold homes in all parts of King County and South Snohomish County and now work some in Anacortes as well as my wife Deb and I bought 5 acres in 2018, where we plan to build and retire.
I am married to Deborah Barrett and live with her in the Blue Ridge community of Seattle. I raised three boys with my ex-wife Lisa that are now young men (Dalton 29, Tucker 28, Marshall 26) and all are still connected to Des Moines area they grew up in, Dalton and Tucker are both teachers in public schools. Marshall has worked at Angelo's restaurant in Burien for almost 10 years. I enjoy being part of the community and have volunteered as PTA President, in Rotary, and have coached many youth sports teams. I believe in giving back to the communities I live and work in.
Outside Interests: I love the Northwest lifestyle. I enjoy hiking, skiing, soccer, camping, and ballroom/social dancing.
Education: Graduated from Inglemoor High School in Bothell, WA, 1978. Graduated from Washington State University, 1982, BA in Business Administration.

Your referrals, of buyers and sellers, along with potential agents are a major source of my business. I will always treat them with the utmost care and respect.
