Name: Kathy Pasquale Title: Director of Business Development & Marketing Company: JRS Architect, P.C. Location: Mineola, N.Y. Birthplace: Jamaica, Queens Education: Nassau Community College First job outside of real estate: Citicorp, New York, N.Y. First job in real estate or allied field: I have been in business development within the real estate community for over 18 years, started in the contract office furniture industry and have been with JRS for nearly 10 years. How do you unwind from a busy day in real estate? Depends on the season. This time of year, I can't think of a better way to unwind than to take a ride on my boat! Favorite book or author: Stephen King always captures my interest since I like scary movies. Favorite movie: I have so many, it depends on my mood. "The Godfather" (of course), "Weekend at Bernies," "Austin Powers," "Christmas Vacation," etc. if I want to laugh. I also love scary movies - too many to mention. Last song you purchased/downloaded? "All About that Base" by Meghan Trainor (yes, it's true.) One word to describe your work environment: Ever-changing Rules to live by in business (and personal): Very simply, treat everyone with respect, work hard, learn something new every day. I read a really good saying once, "Be kind - for everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about." If you could invite one person to dinner (living or dead, but not related to you) who would it be and where would you go? Actor: Al Pachino, Singer: Andrea Bocelli. I would not go anywhere - I would serve them dinner at my home! I love to cook. What is your DREAM job? Something in the food or entertainment industry.
