What recent project, transaction or accomplishment are you most proud of?
I worked diligently alongside commercial real estate partner, Matthew Kasindorf to close a $50.25 million mortgage loan extension and $9.25 million mezzanine loan payment. Not only did the team manage to close this transaction in a few days, I was able to learn about a new section of commercial real estate law.
Tell us about a mentor or role model that has influenced your career choices?

I work and learn from the chair of commercial real estate, Matt Kasindorf, also a professor at NYU, a natural mentor, consistently provides me with guidance and know-how to become a successful “dirt attorney.”
