About The O'Neill Group

A true Ohio native, I grew up in Columbus and attended Bexley High School. My mother lived in Hawaii, so I got to spend a lot of time on the islands as well. Being from the Midwest, I cultivated an appreciation for strong family values and a tireless work ethic which have served me well in my over 23 years working in real estate.

I earned my bachelor’s degree in Communication from the University of Southern California in 92’. I took a job working for my families’ casinos in Central City and Black Hawk Colorado immediately after completing my degree. Developing the group sales program at the casino’s, I learned a lot about customer service and being a great listener. After my stint in Colorado, I got married and moved back home to Ohio where I was the President of a large hospitality catering company that worked mainly with the PGA Tour. We provided food and beverage for large corporate client tents as well as feeding the patrons in the on-course concessions tents. We were responsible for feeding between 50,000-400,000 people a week depending on the weather and specific PGA tournament.

In 2000, I moved back to California and got my real estate license and joined Coldwell Banker in Beverly Hills. I spent the next 18 years in Brentwood Ca. raising my son Quinn, selling real estaste, and was involved with an 18,000 sq. ft. restaurant at Universal Studios City Walk.

In 2018 after my son went of to college in Dallas (SMU), I decided to move south to Newport Beach. I spent 5 years in Newport Beach selling high end luxury real estate. Right before the pandemic I met a wonderful girl that had just moved to Newport Beach with her two teenage daughters. During the lockdown we discussed moving to Florida for many different alluring reasons. Well…..in August of 2022 we made the move and here we are!

Coldwell Banker has been a great place here in Sarasota to hang my license as they like doing certain things ‘outside the box’. In today’s highly competitive real estate market, both companies and agents are having to get very creative in their sales and marketing to reach the increasingly savvy investors and customers looking to buy and sell real estate.

Allow me the opportunity to assist you in either buying or selling real estate and assuring that you have an honest and trustworthy professional maximizing your opportunity for the best outcome in your favor possible.
