Having been a small business owner and tenant for over a decade I became interested in the specific discipline of commercial real estate. In 2012 I entered this professional field with a desire to help other business owners understand every aspect of securing the right space; one that will serve their needs, fit their budget and help them to flourish. My diverse professional background in a variety of roles including, banking, event marketing and business development have provided me a wealth of practical knowledge and real-world experiences well suited for understanding the specific needs of my clients and helping them obtain their objectives.
