John grew up in a small town outside of Syracuse, NY and moved to Long Island in 1967 to teach, get married and raise a family. After spending 34 years as an educator, the last 28 as a high school guidance counselor, John moved to Southampton to start a second career in real estate. Eleven-plus years later with a good deal of experience in all aspects of the Hampton's real estate market, John remains very positive about today market, "I believe the most important aspects of being a good realtor are knowledge of the market and constant communication with your sellers and buyers. My life experiences have sharpened my skills in both of these areas. I truly enjoy what I do and look forward to working with new and interesting people in this challenging market."
