Born and raised in Brazil, Ricky received his BA in Systems Analysis from the Pontificia Universidade Catolica do Parana in Curitiba, Brazil. Following graduation from college, he moved to the United States and after working in several customer service positions, established a very successful vending business based in Ontario, California. After selling his vending business, Ricky worked again in customer service in the security industry before moving to the desert in 2011. Ricky’s entrepreneurial spirit, his passion for helping others achieve their goals and his love of the desert were instrumental in his decision to obtain his real estate sales license and to join Bennion Deville Homes where he specializes in residential properties in the Palm Springs area.
