Why Does He Do It?

Ron’s purpose in business is “Through Service, We Build People” and he lives it daily.  Whether in his companies with his team members, his clients, and their financial future or through charitable organizations serving the less fortunate, he is a servant first concerned with building up others.  

In business, he saw a need to bridge the gap between “real estate education” ‒ and helping folks actually DO what all this training was about.  He was sick and tired of watching good people drown in a sea of debt and misinformation ‒ when he knew there was a better way.

In his community,  when he recognized a need; When women in his community were desperate for a hand up and no organization existed to provide it, it had to be done! In 2016, Ron and the President of RP Capital, Angela Thomas, started and funded a non-profit, Dress for Success Salt Lake City to empower underprivileged women to reach their highest potential.  To date, their efforts have served over 1200 women in the Salt Lake City Area.

He is committed to the same things for himself that he wants for his clients ‒ the freedom to be the best spouse, parent, friend, and citizen they can be. The ability to live their vision of their best life, NOW, and impact generations to come. As a father of three amazing kids and married to his best friend and biggest cheerleader… Ron knows what work-life balance is all about.  He believes that vision for life comes before business, and he lives his vision to its fullest.
