The properties represent architectural works of the highest quality and real estate assets of enduring value. I have supervised projects through the entire real estate cycle from concept creation to project completion and asset management. Overall responsibilities have included acquisition, feasibility, planning, entitlements, team building, financing, design, leasing, workplace and tenant programming, space planning, base building construction, interior and tenant improvements, occupancy. My real estate qualifications are broad and deep, with emphasis on the development of large, complex, best-in-class urban commercial projects, many representing the entrepreneurial start-up of operations in new markets and regions. I am adaptable, a self-starter, a leader, a team builder. For growing companies wanting to bolster their local organization or expand their global footprint, I can help.A global, technology-driven urban renaissance is underway. Vibrant, experiential, human-centered, planet-first urban redevelopment is my passion. I am committed to the best practices of land use policy, the highest standards of responsible and sustainable development, and the creation of great places. I welcome new challenges, new teammates, and new opportunities around the world.
