Charles Tupper was born in Anchorage, Alaska and grew up in Los Angeles, California. Graduating from Mount San Antonio College in Walnut California with an AS degree in Commercial Flight, he earned his pilot’s license. He enlisted in the US Army in 1987 as a Mechanic & Crew Chief on UH-1H helicopters earning his Airframe & Power Plant licenses. He served in Desert Storm & was honorably discharged in 1991. After his discharge Charles returned to California where he worked as an aircraft mechanic, overhauling the PT6 series aircraft engines. He then started a side business as a DJ.

Charles’ side business as a disc-jockey became a business of its own when he added party rentals & full family entertainment. Soon after that, his business went full time. In 1996 he moved his business and family to the White Mountains of Arizona where he became the premier party supply and rental company in the area until selling it in 2017. During his time with his entertainment company, he even had a local kids TV show that included “Ask Willie Fox” and “The White Mountain Teen News”. He also had a screen-printing business for a few years.

Charles soon became heavily involved in his new Arizona community & feels privileged to have had many community volunteering opportunities since 1996 (see partial list below). In 2015 again Charles felt pulled to a new calling and decided to apply his experiences, passions, and strengths into the Real Estate Market by earning his Real Estate License. He set a goal to be the best REALTOR® he could be by serving those with the dream of home ownership and Real Estate investment. Quickly after becoming a REALTOR® his volunteering shifted to the REALTOR® Association and committees.

In 2020, Charles married Terrina & joined her to live in Winslow, Arizona, where she had been a long-time resident. Charles now offers resale homes from Pinetop-Lakeside, Show Low, Taylor, Snowflake and along the I-40 Holbrook, Winslow through Flagstaff areas. Charles spends his free time with his wife, two sons, daughter, two grandchildren and three "fur children". He continues his education, and he looks forward to providing the best experience to all he works for.
