With a career spanning diverse industries, I am driven by a passion for building authentic relationships, creative problem-solving, and embracing new challenges. From leading mortgage banking operations to crafting innovative solutions in energy, technology, and real estate, my journey has been fueled by curiosity and a desire to make meaningful impacts.Starting my post-collegiate career in wholesale mortgage banking, I advanced from an underwriting lead to Head of East Coast Operations at a nationally recognized A-paper lender and REIT. I spearheaded a 525% division growth, improved audit results by 18%, and helped establish policies that fortified the company during the 2008 financial crisis.Over the past decade, I’ve expanded my experience across industries, including non-profits, energy, F&B, and technology. Along the way, I uncovered a deep aptitude for business development, which I continue to pursue today in commercial real estate consulting.Key achievements include:- Securing $1.5M in annual OPEX savings for a single commercial client in 2016.- Negotiating long-term, sustainable energy contracts powering Pittsburgh Steelers and Pittsburgh Penguins stadiums.- Establishing a national employee engagement council that fosters cultural enrichment and curiosity across remote teams.Throughout my career, I’ve leveraged my degree in economics and passion for innovation to drive revenue growth, operational efficiencies, and leadership success. My entrepreneurial spirit has also led me to venture into consulting, creative writing, and impactful community initiatives.I am honored to have served in various organizations, including the Urban Land Institute, BOMA, NAIOP, ICSC, and many others.
