Adam introduced himself,  "Hello future clients!  My name is Adam Kastl and it is my utmost desire to make you a happy home-owner.  I believe a home, and it’s belongings, are a reflection of who we are and what we want to be surrounded by.  That being said, choosing a place to hang your hat may be the most important decision of your life.  Myself, and all of my ERA Justin sales team, are here to make this great decision as easy and positive as  possible.  And smile… because we'll find you more than a house… we'll find you a home. 
 
A little about background.  I have lived in and around Northern Jersey for nearly my entire life.  When I graduated from St. Peter’s Prep School in Jersey City, I received a partial scholarship to the NYU Tisch School for performing in a program called CAP21.  After having enrolled, and the summer before attending my freshman year, I landed my first show and did not stop performing for several years all over the world.  I also had another dream, and when I turned twenty-one I joined the Navy in honor of my father and his service.  I worked on critical interior communications systems onboard USS The Sullivans in Mayport, Florida.  Two years into my enlistment I found a billet to become one of my ships Rescue Swimmers.  I jumped at the opportunity and within several months I was conducting rescues in the Gulf of Mexico, Atlantic, and Mediterranean receiving many awards and commendations. I served in the Navy, but worked with the Marines, (A department of the Navy) and the Coast Guard. It was a wonderful time in my life. 
 
After my final year in the service I returned home to work in the family business.  My mother and I co-own Broadway Bound located in Lyndhurst.  It’s a wonderful school and has really allowed me to get to know the people and area of Bergen County."
