Summary
Dynamic Real Estate Transaction Manager with a decade of experience in acquisitions, leasing, operations and property development across a range of asset types. Strong track record managing transactions, working with brokers and legal teams, and supporting full-cycle development efforts. Skilled at integrating financial modeling and due diligence with boots-on-the-ground execution to deliver strong asset performance and stakeholder outcomes. In addition to transaction management, I serve as the first point of contact for all property management matters across a multi-state portfolio of retail and office properties. I oversee both landlord and tenant obligations, managing CAM budgeting and reconciliation for owned assets and approving those where we are tenants. I've also hired and supervised third-party property management groups for larger retail sites and coordinate daily with vendors and in-house maintenance teams to ensure operational integrity.
