Doug came to the Sunbelt team as a broker after 25 years in business media as a reporter, editor and publisher. After his media career, he became the managing principal of the Cincinnati-Dayton offices of Cushman & Wakefield, a commercial real estate company, and then launched the nonprofit Cincinnati Cares. In addition to working with Sunbelt, Doug is the president of the Metropolitan Club, a business and social club in northern Kentucky that aims to bring together diverse leaders.

Doug’s preferred title is Pawpaw, thanks to his 3-year-old and 6-month-old grandchildren who live with their parents on Doug’s six-acre horse farm. He’s the outgoing president of the Rotary Club of Cincinnati, one of the largest rotary clubs in the world, and is passionate about service work and leadership.
