What was the best decision you made in 2017 and why?

The most influential life decision of 2017 for me involved my choice to retire as one of the top football players in all of Europe and join ONE Commercial Realty Services. I am from Long Island and attended Marist College on an athletic scholarship. After four years at Marist, I accepted an offer to play professionally in Italy for the Italian National Football Team. I was awarded MVP twice for my efforts and selected to the All Europe Team comprised of elite players from leagues around the world. I decided to give all of this up after I returned home in August and begin a career in commercial real estate. My interpersonal communication skills as well as ability to lead people played a huge role in deciding a career path for me. Thanks to my senior director and ONE CRS’s founder David Chase, I have begun to excel in this field and look forward to many successful years to come.
