For Rhett, joining the CRMS Board is a homecoming of sorts. A graduate of the class of 2002, he has carried the school’s founding philosophy with him throughout his career and credits CRMS with doing more to shape him than any other school he attended. Now a shareholder at Wilkes Artis, Chartered in Washington, DC, Rhett specializes in commercial real estate law, representing owners and developers in real property tax appeals and advising on real estate acquisitions and development. Rhett holds a JD from Georgetown University Law Center and a BA in Political Science from Lewis & Clark College. He is married to a fellow Coloradan and has two children who are learning to ski, climb and hike.
