The North Jersey-born entrepreneur of Southern Italian heritage began his career in the mortgage industry in 2002 where he was just 21 years old.

Then in 2004, merely two years into his career, he rose to gain the number one producer place among his company. Striving for first place remained the goal he kept before his eyes throughout the decade and a half since. In 2004 John took his talents to Citizens Financial Mortgage as a branch president in charge of the day to day operations alongside managing and training his top performing team.
