What recent project, transaction or accomplishment are you most proud of?
I’m very proud and excited that in the midst of the pandemic I was part of the Olshan team that represented real estate developer David Edelstein in a lease and collaboration with renowned restaurateurs Stephen Starr and Keith McNally in the NYC Meatpacking District hotspot Pastis’ future opening in the trendy Wynwood arts area of Miami. The restaurant is slated to open in the summer of 2022 and has already received a lot of media attention and buzz in the Miami area and beyond.
Who was/is your mentor and how did s/he influence/help you in your career?I have been very fortunate in having mentors at different stages of my career that have helped me not only in professional development but also in negotiating various stages of my career choices and development. All of the partners that I have worked with at Olshan and their support have greatly contributed to my success. My most impactful mentor, Nina Roket, has not only taught me the ins and out of being a leasing attorney, but she is helping me mold my career in a way that helps me not only achieve career goals but goals outside of work as well.
