Richard D.'s Story
About Me 😊
Yes, I am a “Main-e-ack”! But only because I am originally from the great state of Maine. I was born into a military family, so I have moved around quite a bit. In fact, I lived in eight different states before moving away to college. My father’s career forced me to master the art of making new friends at a very early age.
I have lived here in Seminole, FL since 1981 and have had a very successful sales career. Starting out in music retail where I was convinced by one of my regular customers to give Electronic Distribution a try. There, I sold board level components to the “design geeks” behind the curtains at well-known companies. Once again, my largest customer soon grabbed me up, promoted me up the ladder, and I quickly became their National Sales Manager.

Although I have enjoyed a great sales career, I will quickly admit that my favorite gig was that of a “Chart Reporter” for Billboard Magazine. Yes, I was one of the few that actually decided where the artist ranked on Billboard’s weekly top 100 charts. I hung out with the stars and went to more concerts and back-stage greetings than you can count. However, it was my lifelong interest and love for real estate that eventually brought me to Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices where I am enjoying the life of a Realtor.
My given name is Richard, but people have tagged me with several nicknames over the years. i.e., Rick, Rich, Ricky, RG, Elvis and Boomer but my family and closest friends call me “Tricky”. Yes, I may be a fan of practical jokes.
I have been married to my soulmate Susan (Sue) for 38 years and we have an awesome son named Dallas.
