About Richard
Born and raised in this great melting pot called New Orleans has opened my eyes to things near and far, and have pushed me to reach for it all. My Journey started after graduating High School just prior to Hurricane Katrina (2005), when I decided to apply to become a Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office (JPSO) Deputy. Seeing the destruction and chaos brought upon the city and surrounding areas, drove me to a calling to help. While waiting on a response from the JPSO, I decided to join the Marine Corps Reserve (2006), with hopes of one day going Active Duty. Upon returning home from boot camp and initial training (July 2007), I was accepted full time with the JPSO, and those experiences have since shaped my life.

Now over 17 years later, and having gained experience and insight into various facets of life including: customer service and retail sales; law enforcement; youth developmental coaching and mentoring; military; used car sales and ownership; life insurance sales and producing; and real estate investing, I've decided to take an additional approach to reach and help the masses through becoming a licensed Realtor. Having seen the desires of men and women fighting to find and provide adequate, fair priced housing for their families and loved ones, especially during tough times and experiences of local and/or national disasters, I chose to step in and become the voice to fight for You!

As Your Realtor and Agent, I will fight for you, to get you the best deal and help You navigate to and through the next stage of your life! So call me today, and let me fight for you! Richard, The Marine, Smith
