About Michael
Immediately after high school in 2005, I enlisted in the U.S. Army as a 13F Forward Observer for the Artillery. I had a very succesful 5 year career which included 2 tours of duty in Iraq. I was in Baghad as part of the "Troop Surge" of 2007-2008 and stationed in northern Iraq in 2009-2010. I decided I wanted a family, and the Army life wasn't conducive to the type of family life I wanted to have, so after my last tour, I returned home and enrolled in college at Black Hills State University.
While enrolled and attending classes I became a Rapid City Police Officer. I loved that career. I made a lot of friends and learned many valuable lessons over the 2 years that I was there. I was involved in 2 shooting incidents in early 2012 and decided it was a sign that I should shift my career focus elsewhere. I had purchased my first home while I was a cop, and always felt it was a strong possibility for me to become a Realtor, so in March of 2012 I began studying for my Real Estate License.
I obtained that license in June of 2012 and quickly found that my extreme work ethic and passion for service put me miles ahead of my peers. Within my first 3 years I was in the top 5% of agents in my market according to sales volume. I have continued to provide top tier service and guidance to my clients and as the Broker/Owner of Ascend Realty Inc. I am now dedicated to creating a group of agents who can provide that same elevated level of service under my guidance.
