David Gillespie

I have been a Real Estate Licensee since 1998 and received my GRI designation in 1999. But I have been inactive with it until recently. During that time I started working with dogs full time in my company Alaska Canine Services doing training, behavioral work, and most recently as a groomer. I have learned a lot from all my little four legged friend.

Another passion in my life is the Bagpipes and the Scottish and Irish music. From studying my Celtic heritage I have gained a love for the culture and a respect for all the inventions and discoveries that have come from the Scots and Irish. Check it out on Wikipedia.

I'm currently a solo piper in Anchorage.
