What is your hometown?

I am originally from Mobile, Alabama. My stepdad being in the Air 
Force led my family to the emerald coast.

What is your profession ?

I’m a sales associate for the Coldwell Banker Destin/30A offi  ce. I deal 
with investment, primary, secondary and new construction properties 
from Pensacola to Panama City Beach.

What led you to this profession?

Coming from a line of entrepreneurs in my family , such as mortgage 
brokers, builders, human resources and hospitality… sales is in my 
blood. My fi rst taste of real estate was assisting a top producer who 
sold 30 million dollars a year. In my years of assisting her I found great 
joy helping people start a new chapter in their lives. Whether it’s in 
investing, buying, or listing it always seemed like a celebration.

What do you like best about Destin?

The food! Destin is widely known as at the worlds luckiest fi shing 
village and let me tell you that is our bread and butter. Mahi Mahi, 
Amberjack and Tuna are some of the biggest and best fi sh that are 
served as a local catch in cuisines that are in New Orleans, France and 
Brazil and brought to the table in Destin.

Finish this statement; I can’t get through the day without…

Laughing at myself, thinking about my momma and thanking my 
team for always being there for me at anytime of the day.

If someone wrote a biography about you, what do you think the 
title should be? 

The title would be “My name is spelt Brian not Brain.”

What three things do you need to be successful in this job? 

Patience, value, and a positive mindset.
