Originally from Georgia, John studied Finance at the University of Georgia before moving to Charleston in 2011 to pursue real estate. Over the past 15 years, he has built both a career and a family here, with a love of hosting that led him into the vacation rental market.

He lives near Shem Creek with his wife, two kids, and their dog, and enjoys Charleston’s blend of community and energy—whether dining out, spending time on the water, or staying active. When he can, John heads to the ski slopes of British Columbia or the river with a fly rod. As Anthony Bourdain once said, “Travel is not a reward for working, it’s education for living.” That’s a spirit I try to carry with me in both business and life.
