MARKET UPDATE /// Started in 2012, the D-backs Race Against Cancer is an employee and fan favorite, allowing the community to come together in support of everyone touched by cancer.

very, very long days. Everyone who works here does so because they genuinely love baseball and philanthropy. They have the opportunity to work with fans through our 50/50 raffle. We have our community clubhouse and auctions that we do all the time. We have community partners that are here and groups that we donate tickets to. Hosting is our responsibility. And being a professional sports team, I’m proud that my team takes this very seriously. In the end, everyone’s all in. Our family is a baseball family, and baseball is supposed to be something more than just the game. Baseball is about the people we serve and the community where we live.

10 p.m. >> KEEPING AN EYE ON THE BALL One of my challenges is that I tend to focus on people, which means that I can be behind on emails and voicemails because if someone is with me, that’s where my attention is. I spend time at the end of the day scanning the day’s emails and voicemails and identifying what I need to respond to quickly so that people know I’m paying attention.

Experts expect Metro Phoenix to be among the top five housing markets during 2020.

With higher loan limits in 2020 (Conforming and VA at $510,400 and FHA at $331,760), buyers and homeowners have more buying power and room to refinance.

ARIZONA LOVE

I think it’s fantastic that Arizona’s birthday falls on Valentine’s Day. Being a native makes me realize there’s so much I love about our state and the people in it. Recently, I was asked to be a part of Phoenix’s 2020 Know Tribe. The “KNOW Phoenix Book” is a listing of the Valley’s female business owners, leaders and philanthropists who love doing what they do in their careers and communities. What a great way to show love to our beautiful state and to the ladies that live here!
