Always valuing family as his top priority, Rick and his wife, Colette, moved back to the Bay Area upon the birth of his first of three children to be closer to family.

In 1991 he left to become a broker associate with RE/MAX Real Estate Company, in 2017 he joined esteemed Bay Area brokerage Alain Pinel Realtors and in 2019 he became an agent at Compass. Now, his affiliation with The Agency marks the next step in his journey to be one of the best in the business.
