Over the past two decades, I have held the position of Operations Manager within the firm. My responsibilities encompass managing construction and development projects, including new business origination, financial structuring, and risk evaluation. Additionally, I play a crucial role in shaping the firm’s overall direction, investment strategy, and capitalization. As part of revenue generation, I engage in fundraising from investors and lenders.
My expertise spans land acquisition, raw land development, estimating, project management, and transaction coordination. For more than fifteen years, I have facilitated real estate acquisitions and dispositions, actively contributing to successful investment transactions totaling millions of dollars. My experience extends to purchasing, rehabilitating, and selling both single-family homes and multi-family buildings.
