Growing up in an Irish Catholic family of six, with my parents owning Kelly’s Circle Tap, taught me early that great service starts with listening, connecting with people, and making them feel welcome. Following my father’s path from hospitality into real estate, I have spent more than eight years as a full-time Realtor with Ruhl&Ruhl Realtors, helping buyers and sellers throughout the Quad Cities, including Davenport, Bettendorf, Rock Island, Moline, and surrounding communities.

With nearly 30 listing transactions and more than 85 buyer transactions, I bring hands-on experience to a wide range of moves. My background as the former owner of Kelly’s Irish Pub and Eatery also shaped the way I work today. I stay calm under pressure, look for practical solutions, communicate clearly, and help make complicated real estate decisions feel more manageable.

I especially enjoy working with first-time homebuyers, families moving into a home that better fits their needs, homeowners preparing to downsize, and clients relocating to or within the Quad Cities. I take the time to understand what is creating stress or uncertainty, explain the process clearly, and keep my clients’ goals and financial priorities in focus from our first conversation through closing.

The Quad Cities have always been an important part of my life. From River Bandits baseball and Steamwheelers football to local running and biking trails, Holy Family School, Assumption High School, and the neighborhoods that connect Davenport, Bettendorf, Rock Island, and Moline, I know this area as both a Realtor and a longtime member of the community.

When I am not helping clients buy or sell a home, I enjoy spending time with my wife, Elizabeth, and our four kids, tackling household projects, or heading out for a motorcycle ride around the area. To me, a successful real estate experience is about more than reaching the closing table. It is about earning trust, building lasting relationships, and being someone my clients feel comfortable calling long after the transaction is complete.
