2023 Women in CRE: Nina Roket, Olshan Frome Wolosky LLP
Real Estate Partner
Olshan Frome Wolosky LLP
What recent project, transaction, or accomplishment are you most proud of? I am proud of the expansion of my practice and generation of new clients in new industries over the past couple of years. I have worked with new clients in completely restructuring their real estate and business, helping create a new and unique business to address the difficulty in obtaining financing for leasehold improvements and helping create a financing and implementation platform for bio manufacturing. Having new clients from different industries seek my counsel and advice is extremely gratifying.
What are the most important factors women in your industry should consider when choosing a firm to build their career with? Women should identify a firm and a group of professional colleagues who support their personal growth, development and gives them the responsibility that allows them to showcase their skills.
Who inspires you most? What qualities do they possess that inspire you? My parents. I was fortunate to experience first hand from my family the meaning and value of hard work and perseverance. With my parents serving as examples, I developed a strong work ethic and drive to succeed which has formed my character and instructed my success.
