Bio
A native of Philadelphia, Richard’s love affair with real estate and architecture began at an incredibly early age, when summer vacations consisted of visiting his six great aunts whose marriages had scattered them along the eastern seaboard from Maine to Georgia. The diversity of styles, materials and function fascinated him. Having studied at Pratt Institute & Georgia State University Richard hold degrees in Fashion Design and Art & Architectural History as well as an MFA from Virginia Tech in Set & Costume Design.
Richard’s experience shooting all over the L.A. basin has given him knowledge of an extremely wide area and brought him sales from beach communities to the desert as well as in the Pasadena and L.A. areas. His design skills and knowledge of architecture have effectively assisted his clients in finding and sometimes transforming their perfect home.
Richard has owned and restored historic properties in the West Adams Historic District of LA, Los Feliz, Altadena, and Pasadena. He is committed to preservation, am a member of The Los Angeles Conservancy, Pasadena Heritage, and Palm Springs Historical Society and has served on the boards of West Adams Historical Association and Altadena Heritage. Preserving the past more clearly defines where our future is going.
