Bio

Background on me:

I'm in the NYC metro area and actually started my career in real estate. Upon receiving my bachelor's and subsequent degrees in Business Management and Cosmetic and Fragrance Marketing from LIM College and FIT in New York City. I transitioned my career from real estate to pharmaceutical sales and territory development. I launched Colorescience Pro a post opt cosmetic product to the top plastic surgeons and dermatologists in the Northeast. From there I developed and the company was recently sold DEVACURL curly hair product line and Devachan salon. I also was a key player in the expansion of cosmeceutical brand IS Clinical on their expansion from West to East Coast.

Working with physicians and hairstylists alike I realized how these individuals were brilliant at their individual gifts from curing patients to Lorraine Massey the brains behind DEVACURL who gave a new life to unruly curly hair. But in both scenarios were not business focused.

I was introduced to my Healthcare attorney many years ago Alyson Avila from Gordon Rees who taught me the ins and outs of owning a Medical Service Organization. Which allows me in NY and NJ to legally work with a doctor as a non physican and how I could not only make honest money but also change physican business models to success but also additionally many patients lives.

From there I opened the NYC operations for Cenegenics adding a cosmetic and aesthetic arm based upon my previous experience. I was able create a model to not only balance the patient internally but also use the proper balance or biological balance as I call it and advanced diagnostic testing to make them feel and look incredible from the inside out.

Cenegenics being a high end elite clientele model I wanted to bring the inside out approach to more patients. Forming another MSO, with a well established but not business savvy primary care physician and working off a base of 20,000 mostly commercial PPO and medicare plus supplementary patient base. I morphed this office in a "we work" for physicians and alternative therapies leveraging my real estate knowledge, business and marketing expertise.

Most recently I acquired a vocational trade school in West New York, NJ called the institute of science and technology www.istnj.com. Where we focused on medical care training for mostly welfare faced individuals. We actually offer state funded training programs in home care and care giving settings. This also allowed me to grow into other medical business sectors in the NJ market and established my political connections in the area. Based on a philosophy of wanting the students to have a quality internship I am now opening a clinic in Jersey City NJ. As well as, with one of my physicians working on an in patient substance abuse program leveraging alternative therapies in the area as well.

With my Rolodex of high net worth clients I am always called to help find real estate assets and other business opportunities for my network.
