Michael is all things Richmond. 

Born in South Korea and adopted and raised in Midlothian, VA, Michael is a proud local Richmonder and Southside Dweller. With the exception of a four-year detour in Blacksburg to study Journalism and a two-year pit stop in Charlottesville (where his Real Estate career began), Michael has called Midlothian, The Fan, Museum District, Church Hill, Shockoe Bottom, and Downtown Financial District "home" at various points over the course of his life, before purchasing a home back in Midlothian in 2021. 

Using his personal, professional, and family network (his late father was a 35+ year small business owner in Chesterfield County as a CPA), Michael has had the fortunate opportunity to make lasting connections that have helped his business grow.

Outside of Real Estate, Michael loves enjoying Richmond's incredible food scene, being outside with his family, chatting over coffee, and watching and talking sports. Michael resides in Midlothian, a few miles from his childhood home, with his wife Lisa, son Adrian, daughter Mia, and loyal feline friend, Bowie.
