About Drake
Drake is a Marine veteran and co-owner of Five Pillars Team. He loves high-performance homes and looks past the finishes to how a house is built: air sealing, insulation, comfort, and durability.
Drake served five years in the Marine Corps, most of it with 3rd Reconnaissance Battalion on Okinawa. He was a sniper on a Force Recon team and worked two presidential details in Southeast Asia.
After leaving the service in 2020, Drake went into real estate full time, starting with flipping homes. He decided he didn’t want to run a construction business, and he saw how often buyers and sellers had to make big decisions without knowing much about construction. So he joined Shelby as a full-time agent.
That background helps him spot expensive problems early and tell a well-built home from one that just shows well.
