Professional Experience

Owner of OBX Luxury Rentals LLC., OBX Adventures and OBX Luxury Rentals Design Services

Kitty Hawk, North Carolina

I have been vacationing in the Outer Banks of North Carolina and have been offering vacation rentals for over 30 years. Growing up his family operated a furniture business in the northern part of New Jersey and a moving company. I have developed several online businesses over the years and always found my way back to the Outer Banks. Enjoying getting more involved in the build process we incorporated custom builds through Austin and his team over time, he expanded his portfolio of properties in the Outer Banks. While working with Austin and his team we realized the need for furnishing and setup services with homes throughout the local area. Being a non-resident homeowner the added value, bulk pricing discounts and time saving he utilized his experience and contacts he partnered with Croatan Custom Homes to offer furnishing services to custom builds and provide one of the most comprehensive and seamless build processes in the area. He believes in building long term relationships and adding value to help expand and develop the area with individuals looking to build their dream homes. You only have to visit the Outer Banks once to learn that the community is more than just a business transaction.
