What was your greatest professional accomplishment in 2012?: I closed the quickest and most protracted deals of my career. We completed a transaction with a nonprofit client. The sale of 15 acres in to the City of New York. We started that deal seven years ago. Another nonprofit negotiated their own renewal and we were asked to finish the transaction. We did that deal in a week and they saved $350,000.

What are your resolutions for 2013? : Continue to zealously advocate for my clients!
