Personal Background

Jeremy was raised in Parkville, Missouri, a community just north of Kansas City. His upbringing was deeply influenced by a family steeped in professional success and service. Jeremy’s grandfather held an esteemed role as the superintendent of the Park Hill Public School District, emphasizing the family’s commitment to education and community development.

His mother had a vibrant career both as a real estate broker and a flight attendant for TWA, reflecting an adventurous spirit combined with entrepreneurial acumen. Jeremy’s father was a successful businessman, instilling values of diligence, strategy, and perseverance.

Jeremy’s maternal grandfather was actively engaged as a real estate developer, further embedding the family’s generational ties to property and community building. His great uncle served honorably in World War I and rests in the National Cemetery in Santa Fe, New Mexico, symbolizing the family’s historical dedication to national service.

The family connection to Santa Fe has deeper roots, stretching back to Jeremy’s aunt who was a Harvey Girl, working for the Southwest Super Chief—a train line established by Fred Harvey. She settled in Santa Fe and spent many fulfilling years at the iconic La Fonda Hotel. Jeremy eventually followed family members to Santa Fe, continuing a legacy of exploration, commitment to community, and personal connection to a city enriched by his family’s history.
