I am excited to announce that I have started a new position as Government Affairs Director for the Building & Realty Institute of Westchester County & the Mid-Hudson Region.

I write articles for Real Estate in Depth twice a month. I have run lobbying campaigns to defeat transfer taxes in Yonkers, Rockland and many other counties. This year I fought and successfully enacted co-op fair housing legislation in Westchester County to improve the co-op transaction process. I also run several committees at HGAR and have a wealth of experience with association management. I meet with state lawmakers to advance HGAR's legislative agenda at the state and local levels.

I wrote articles for the company paper and I spoke to the Realtor members and gave legislative updates concerning the industry. I also raised money for the political action committee and met with town council members, county legislators and other law makers concerning legislation affecting the real estate industry.
