Name: Andre Sigourney Title: Associate Director, Retail Investment Sales Team Company: CPEX Real Estate Location: Brooklyn, N.Y. Birthplace: Boston, MA Education: BA, Syracuse University First job outside of real estate: After I graduated college, I decided to do some traveling. I found that teaching English was a great way to travel abroad, so I found a job with Inlingua Costa Rica. This decision shaped the next few years of my life. First job in real estate or allied field: While I was living in Costa Rica, I developed a couple of residential rental homes catered to the growing expat community outside of the capital city of San Jose. This experience really sparked my strong interest in the real estate industry. What do you do now and what are you planning for the future: I currently manage a team solely focused on marketing commercial retail properties for sale. I plan to grow my team's presence throughout the five boroughs of New York City and beyond. How do you unwind from a busy day in real estate: If my daughter is awake, I put her to bed; otherwise I enjoy a relaxing dinner with my wife. Favorite book or author: "On the Rd." by Jack Kerouac Favorite movie: "Forrest Gump" Last song you downloaded: "Sex on Fire" by Kings of Leon One word to describe your work environment: Exciting Rules to live by in business: "It is not the strongest or the most intelligent who will survive but those who can best manage change." - Charles Darwin If you could invite one person to dinner (living or dead) who would it be and where would you go: John F. Kennedy. "The Kennedy Booth" at the Union Oyster House in Boston. What's your dream job: I am exactly where I want to be, no need or time to dream.
