My experience includes the representation of home buyers and sellers, resale and new home construction listings and sales, and several years of experience negotiating agreements with various Federal Agencies, State Agencies, and private landowners on behalf of our local federal agencies.  My experience with DOI and WSMR has made me very familiar with the management of the public lands that surround and are integrated with much of our community.

I led a very successful military career, reaching the rank as a Senior Non-Commissioned Officer and a Military Intelligence Officer - finishing my career as a Commissioned Officer with a local Civil Affairs unit tasked with providing humanitarian assistance in South America.  I served in combat during Operation Iraqi Freedom; working within a 10-man team as an Advisor to an Iraqi Brigade Staff - a role in which I was awarded the Combat Action Badge and a Bronze Star for my work developing our counterparts in various disciplines in order to reach their self-sustainment.  I am very proud, but humble, of my service in the military and as a public servant here in the Las Cruces community.

We also love the culture and history of Las Cruces, the local arts and crafts, fantastic farmer's market, the great cost of living, the unbeatable weather, and of course the food!  All of these make the quality of life in Las Cruces very hard to match.  In 2015, Deneve gave birth to our son.  Although this changed our priorities somewhat, we have enjoyed watching him grow and look forward to the years ahead here in Las Cruces.  See you around town! -Carl
