Bio
I am passionate about leveraging real estate as a vehicle for social impact investment and community development. With a strong foundation in economics and international studies, I’ve gained hands-on experience in capital research, negotiation, and project management through roles at NYCEDC and Towerline Group. My work focuses on ensuring that real estate projects are not only financially viable and socially responsible but also contribute positively to the communities they serve. I am committed to exploring innovative solutions that bridge financial profitability with social responsibility. By leveraging public funding and government incentives, such as tax abatements, I aim to attract private investment into projects that foster sustainable, inclusive communities. With a deep interest in sustainability in the built environment, I strive to integrate green practices into development projects, ensuring that they promote economic growth while minimizing their environmental impact.
