Bio

I am a native New Yorker fully licensed in New York and New Jersey.
From my work experience, I developed a keen ability for managing details and deadlines. As part of the Facilities Management Department for HBO, I was on the planning team for the design and construction of their new facility on 42nd St during the Bryant Park Restoration project of the 1980s. I remained the Facilities Manager for over 10 years. I then took a position with the Manalapan-Englishtown Regional School District in the Physical Plant Department while working as a Sign Language Interpreter. From there I moved on to JFK Medical Center in Edison, NJ where, as the Administrative Manager for their new home care division, I was charged with the task of locating new office space after a fire damaged our existing space. Upon completion of this two-year project, I made a decision to join the world of Commercial Real Estate.
My commercial business experience has taken me to the streets of Brooklyn for heavy construction and to the creative world of Long Island City's film-making industry. On the International side, my focus has been on Italy with a particular concentration in the regions of Tuscany and Piedmont, or as I would say Toscana and Piemonte.
I speak Italian and Spanish and am conversational in American Sign Language.
