Throughout my time as an undergraduate and graduate student, it has been my goal to balance academics with real world experience in shaping the built environment. After obtaining my Massachusetts Real Estate Salesperson license at 18 years old, I worked for three different brokers gaining the basic qualitative and quantitative skills necessary to analyze and evaluate specific real estate markets, their nuances, and the properties within them. During the summer of 2008, I worked for AIG Global Real Estate in New York, where I worked with domestic and international real estate investment funds, providing me with a strong macro-level understanding of global capital markets. At Shanghai Centre during the fall of 2008, I experienced a micro-level view of real estate through asset management in an international work environment.
After focusing primarily the private sector real estate, I decided to shift my focus to planning and policy. I spent two summers working in city planning for the City of Ocean City, NJ, where I was able to participate in shaping this city by working with the local community. During graduate school, I have worked as a graduate research assistant at Georgia Tech's Enterprise Innovation Institute, where I provided economic development technical assistance for communities and organizations throughout the state. During the summer of 2011, I further developed my analytic skills through an internship at PKF Consulting, where I developed econometric forecasting models for hotel markets across the United States. Because of my breadth of work experiences, I’ve been able to see and understand built space through many lenses: as places to live and work, as cash flows to be managed, and as one component in a broader economy. The entirety of my work experiences has given me both the conceptual framework and technical skills to effectively shape the built environment in different ways. |
