A proud native of Arizona, Chey graduated from Arizona State University (4.0 GPA; Summa Cum Laude), in 2002 with a degree in Finance and went on to earn his Masters of Science in Accountancy from the University of Notre Dame.  Since he always loved Arizona, he then moved back home as he honestly couldn’t imagine living or working anywhere else.

After settling in, he went to work as a Senior Auditor for Ernst & Young, a ‘Big 4’ accounting firm, later moving on to become a Senior Financial Analyst for DMB Associates, a respected real estate developer specializing in high-end master planned communities.  During his tenure at DMB,  Chey became part of DMB’s sales team servicing the exclusive community of Silverleaf in North Scottsdale.  This experience fueled and solidified his passion for high-end real estate sales, and in fact, as part of the Silverleaf team, he helped contribute to the sale of over $200,000,000 in home and homesite sales.  It was there that Chey also became aware of the first-class reputation enjoyed by Russ Lyon Sotheby’s International Realty/Frank Aazami Private Client Group and made it his goal to one day become part of this elite team – a goal he's proud to say that he's now accomplished.

What sets Chey apart from many REALTORs® is his in-depth knowledge and understanding of the financial side of any transaction, a skill that enables him to ensure that his clients’ financial needs are very well-served.  In addition, Chey makes it his mission to devote his total focus, intensity and time to the needs of his clients.

In closing, colleagues have described him as “positive,” “optimistic,” “trustworthy,” “hard-working” and “ethical” – traits that he values highly in both his work and personal life.  His hope and objective is that after a client has completed a real estate transaction with him, he or she would also agree with these words.
