A former U.S. Marine and field- and corporate-level retail leader for Target and other major brands, he excels at maintaining a solid bond with agents while encouraging them to stretch and challenge themselves. Though he quickly succeeded after entering the world of real estate in 2021 and capped within six months of receiving his license, Rusty is equally transparent with agents about what hindered his journey as he is about what propelled it forward. Outside of work, you’ll find him staying active, traveling, reading, or grilling on his Big Green Egg. Rusty also cherishes time with his family and volunteering with The Salvation Army.
