Brian was born in Marquette, MI on the shores of Lake Superior. It is here that his love for boating and fishing was instilled by his father while watching sunrises fishing for lake trout on the big lake and trolling for Salmon on Lake Michigan.
Throughout his time attending High School and College, Brian worked as a dock attendant and later managed two, 100 Slip Marina Facilities for the City of Marquette, MI on Lake Superior. His love of boats was evident as he was a live aboard during the summer months as well as detailed boats after hours for customers.
Upon receiving his Bachelors of Science Degree in Marketing from Northern Michigan University, Brian was ready for a warmer climate that offered year-round boating and moved to Tampa, Florida in 1999.
After 17 years in the Medical Device Industry, Brian decided to pursue his true passion in the Marine Industry obtaining his USCG 50 Ton Masters License and joining a large retail boat sales organization. In continual pursuit of growth in the industry, he joined OneWater Yacht Group in 2022 to further serve clients in a brokerage capacity. Brian is knowledgeable in all things boating and strives to go above and beyond for his clients to find the right boat as well as be a continual resource after the sale.
When not working, Brian enjoys spending time with his Wife and twin children, on the water boating and fishing as well as on the golf course.
