Rick has over 25 years of international legal, financial and real property experience.  Rick holds a law degree as well and served as General Counsel for Johnson Controls Integrated Facility Management Group and lived in Hong Kong in the mid-1990's as the Director of Motorola's Asia-Pacific Law Department where he guided the legal and financial strategies and negotiated the terms for numerous acquisitions and divestitures of companies throughout Asia and the rest of the world.

Originally from Chicago, Rick and his wife Pam, who is a professor of communications at the University of South Carolina's New River Campus, successfully invested in property here in 1998 and as a result were able to move to the LowCountry permanently in 2002.  Rick believes that this is one of the best times in our history to invest in real estate in the LowCountry, particularly Bluffton.  While Rick specializes in bringing his legal and real estate talents to bear to help investors throughout the country and the world take advantage of this opportunity and make sound real estate investments in our unique coastal setting, he truly enjoys working directly with buyers and sellers of primary residences and second homes to help them realize that they too can have all of their dreams come true.
