I am a partner in a real estate firm that acquires and develops Class A core plus multi-family projects in the southeast and Texas. We purchased over 1000 units in the 1st quarter of 2021. As an entrepreneurial real estate partner with a 30-year track record of acquiring, developing, and monetizing hospitality, office, retail, residential, and industrial assets across multiple economic cycles, I’ve gained a deep understanding of complex, distressed, and undervalued real estate assets.Known for acquiring some of the most attractive, off-market, real estate deals, I provide investors with the contacts, strategies, mentorship, and sound business judgment they need to make things happen. With a lead-by-example philosophy and as a champion for self-reliance, I advise investors to expect the best but also how to move ahead when facing challenges.I found that the key to delivering exceptional success for investors is developing and leading aggressive implementation of investment, asset management, and business strategies.

With a reputation for tapping into and investing in emerging high tech and the tenacity to get work done under strenuous circumstances, I launched O.L.S. to help start-ups and emerging technology companies in the U.S. and Israel commercialize and grow their business while building my own investment portfolio.Adept at cultivating successful, long-term industry relationships, I advise family offices, high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs), and JV partners looking to provide start-up and venture capital for high-tech ventures.With a stellar track record in real estate investments, I’m regularly sought out to provide strategic advice and capital for family offices and HNW focusing on commercial, industrial, retail, and residential projects.

As EVP and general counsel of Intertech, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Zapco Holdings Inc., I traveled between our offices in New York and Washington, D.C., as the company initiated an asset acquisition and repositioning program during the nadir of the real estate investment cycle, when assets were priced at significant discounts to replacement costs.While building an $800M international portfolio of commercial and hotel real estate as well as alternative private equity (PE) investments, I orchestrated the turnaround of distressed real estate properties while investing in and developing office parks, redeveloping commercial and hotel projects, and master-planning mixed-use communities, which yielded exponential IRRs for our investors. I was a partner in each individual entity and project.With an ability to see trends, I stepped up as the resident problem solver for complex issues and capitalized on an instinctive business acumen to steer critical investments such as a Times Square property at 1500 Broadway and the sale of a hotel portfolio to Starwood, with Intertech achieving a 30X equity multiple over 12 years.

Oversaw turnaround of distressed real estate portfolio, and invested in and developed office parks, redeveloped commercial and hotel projects, and master planned mixed use communities over a twelve year period, resulting in exponential IRRs for investors.
