I run ZoneWire, where we use AI to monitor city council and planning board meetings across U.S. metro areas and deliver same-day zoning intelligence to commercial real estate professionals. We've analyzed over 300 public meetings to date, extracting rezoning votes, variance approvals, and land use decisions hours after the gavel drops. Before building ZoneWire, I spent years watching how CRE deals were won and lost based on who had information first. The best investors and brokers always knew about zoning changes before anyone else — they just did it manually, which doesn't scale. We fixed that. I write and speak about zoning trends, land use policy, proptech, and how AI is making government data accessible and actionable for the first time. Happy to comment on anything related to commercial real estate intelligence, municipal planning decisions, or how technology is reshaping deal sourcing.

Something else happened when I purchased my first home. I developed a love of improving properties. The first home I purchased was a true “fixer upper.” I put work into it, and I learned from the contractors I hired to do the heavy lifting. I was encouraged by the positive responses I got for my hard work from family, friends and neighbors. Since then, I’ve taken on more “fixer uppers,” and I have learned which investments pay off and how to find trustworthy contractors who bring value to the projects. As a Realtor, I act as a home advisor to my clients, sharing my home-improvement knowledge with them. For buyers, that means I am happy to advise you on which projects will provide you with a good return on investment, and I can steer you toward the area’s best contractors. For sellers, that means I can help you make inexpensive, worthwhile changes that will make your home more attractive to buyers.
