About Doug

I've lived in the Southwest United States for over forty years. In 1982 I moved to New Mexico from the East Coast. I spent many years in the high country of Colorado. My wife Dawn and I left the cold for Arizona. We new it wasn't our last stop. We'd been visiting Catron County for years. When the world was locking down we decided it was time for a change and moved to Catron County. 

 I've been in sales for over 20 years and helped clients with their Real Estate needs as a Realtor® in AZ. for 8 years. Once we moved to Reserve, Mary Greiert the broker who helped us buy our home approached me about coming to work work with her at Open Range Real Estate.  Mary asked me, "What is it you like to do?" I told her, "I like to drive around and talk to people." She smiled. We knew it would be a good fit and I gladly accepted her offer. 

When I'm not serving clients I'm out exploring the millions of acres of the Gila National Forest. It is an extraordinary land with extraordinary people. I also enjoy traveling to foreign lands and exploring their lands, people and cultures.

Giving back has always been important to me. My Dad taught me that volunteering can be an important value in life. I have pursued different avenues of volunteering over my years. Currently I volunteer with "The Mankind Project" helping Men with their emotional and social well being as well as creating a mission for their lives.  I've been a member of "Boys to Men" an organization that works with teenage boys in local school districts. I also volunteer as a Crisis Counselor for the "National Suicide Hotline."

Enough about me. I want to know about you. Give me a call and lets see what we can create together!
