About
With a degree in Business Administration from Western Michigan University and over 30 years of leadership in management, Ken brings a wealth of experience in customer service, negotiation, and strategic planning to the world of real estate. Now, Ken has shifted his lifelong passion for exceptional customer experiences into a dynamic real estate career. His mission? To help clients confidently buy, sell, or lease homes in Chicago, a city he’s proudly called home for more than three decades. Ken has lived in many of the city’s most iconic neighborhoods—including Lakeview, Lincoln Park, Bucktown, Wicker Park, River North, the Gold Coast, and the South Loop—giving him deep insights into what makes each community unique. Whether you’re a first-time buyer looking for that perfect condo, a long-time homeowner ready to sell, or someone just looking for the right rental, Ken is committed to making the process smooth, stress-free, and even enjoyable. He understands that real estate isn’t just about property—it’s about people, lifestyle, and the moments that make a house a home. Ken’s natural eye for design, attention to detail, and calm, organized approach make him a trusted guide through the sometimes-hectic Chicago real estate market. His background in high-pressure retail environments taught him how to stay focused, communicate clearly, and find creative solutions—all skills that translate perfectly to buying and selling homes.
