Years before I got into Commercial Real Estate, I was a television production manager for Public Television’s acclaimed “Dance in America Series” in New York City. I got to work with the New York City Ballet and the iconic choreographer Balanchine.
We would shoot these big productions at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, Tennessee. Why? For one reason, it was a “right to work state” saving money on crew and equipment costs as well as the best sports cameramen were there. Why do you ask again? The sports cameramen wouldn’t cut off the feet – they followed the fast movement and captured the full frame of the dancers beautifully.
I remember one production was “The Rite of Spring”, ballet and orchestral concert work by the Russian composer Igor Stravinsky and required a significant amount of props in the background. One of those props was bagels, but not just any frozen bagels. They had to be the real deal. So, using my resourceful skills and figuring out if we had enough budget, I ordered NYC bagels and flew them down first-class to Nashville. Crazy, you think? Well, when the producer says make it happen, you just do it!!!
Coming up with solutions, and acting quickly and efficiently is how I roll.

I’ve always been someone who reads the room.
It started in live television, where timing was everything and silence usually meant something was on fire. With years of experience behind the scenes in TV production, I learned how to stay calm, think creatively, and resolve issues before they become problems.
Now, 𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗽 𝗯𝗿𝗼𝗸𝗲𝗿 𝗮𝘁 𝗦𝗮𝘅𝘂𝗺 𝗪𝗲𝘀𝘁, I bring that same mindset to commercial real estate.
It’s not about pushing space, it’s about understanding people. When someone tells me they need an office, what they mean is:
“𝙒𝙚 𝙣𝙚𝙚𝙙 𝙖 𝙝𝙤𝙢𝙚 𝙗𝙖𝙨𝙚 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙞𝙙𝙚𝙖𝙨, 𝙙𝙚𝙖𝙙𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙚𝙨, 𝙘𝙡𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙨, 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙘𝙤𝙛𝙛𝙚𝙚 𝙗𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙠𝙨. 𝘼𝙣𝙙 𝙬𝙚 𝙣𝙚𝙚𝙙 𝙞𝙩 𝙨𝙤𝙤𝙣.”
𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗜 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗶𝗻.
I don’t just lease office space. I help you get the right space at the right price!
