My career path began in 1987 when I opened my own legal practice in Kansas City, Kansas. I came into contact and aided people with a variety of legal issues from all walks of life. Through my practice I learned crucial business, relational, and countless other skills that have propelled me into my subsequent positions and current position with Gary Long Law, P.A.

In 1997 I entered the Banking and Mortgage industry. Throughout the late 90’s and early 2000’s the mortgage industry was tumultuous and I held positions at companies including Bank of America, Old Cornerstone Financial, NovaStar Mortgage, Amtrust Mortgage Corp, and Stonegate Mortgage Corporationl. As one door closed another opened and led me to another position where I learned new skill sets and honed my existing skills. 

On a personal note, I am a grandfather & father. I reside in Westwood, Kansas.
