*Host Family Basics*
Provide a safe, stable, and welcoming home environment. Offer a bedroom (not shared with opposite gender) and a place to study. Include the student as part of the family (meals, activities, daily life). Provide transportation guidance (not necessarily all rides). Support school attendance and engagement. Maintain regular communication with Rotary counselor and program leaders.

Student will go to Overfelt High School, so please think about this logistic.

*What Hosting Looks Like*
Typically 4–5 months at the start of 2027.
Students have their own spending money and insurance. Host families are volunteers—not paid—but the experience is highly rewarding. Rotary provides ongoing support and a counselor for both the student and the host family.

I grew up in Munster, Indiana, just outside Chicago, before moving with my family to San Diego. After high school, I headed north to attend Santa Clara University, where I studied Accounting and Management, played on the golf team, and ultimately found my way into commercial real estate.

I've always had an entrepreneurial spirit. At age eight, I used my birthday money to buy two old Coca-Cola machines and started my first business. I didn't know it at the time, but it sparked a lifelong interest in business, investing, and creating opportunities. Adventure has been another constant theme throughout my life. By age ten, I had learned to sail and windsurf. Since then, I've studied in Mexico, helped build a portion of the 106-mile Wonderland Trail on Mount Rainier, completed marathons and several Half Ironman races, spent a summer backpacking through Costa Rica, and worked weekends as a ski instructor in Lake Tahoe while building my real estate career during the week.

Today, I am a Senior Vice President with Kidder Mathews, specializing in medical office and healthcare real estate throughout Silicon Valley and Northern California. I serve as a strategic advisor and broker for healthcare providers, businesses, nonprofit organizations, property owners, and investors, helping them with leasing, acquisitions, and investment sales. I particularly enjoy helping family-owned businesses acquire the real estate they occupy and build long-term wealth through investment properties throughout the country.

When I'm not working, you'll usually find me outdoors, hopefully in the mountains or near a lake, golfing, skiing, hiking, biking, sailing, or planning the next adventure. These days, I'm also trying to convince myself that I'm still as athletic as I was twenty years ago.

I'm excited to be joining the Rotary Club of San Jose and look forward to getting involved, giving back to the community, and getting to know fellow members.
