First job unrelated to your current field: My first job was at Robinson Ace Hardware in Guilderland, N.Y. I started as a cashier and worked my way up to be a manager. After college I created an outside sales program for the store selling to commercial clients around the Capital District.
First job in your current field: Vanguard-Fine, LLC. is my first job in real estate. Working at Vanguard-Fine is a great experience where I meet people, work on exciting projects, and where I have been a part of many successes.
What your firm does now and its plans for the future? Our firm is an outstanding regional development and brokerage company, we had a great 2012 and we are planning to expand and grow in 2013. Due to the economic climate and condition over the last 3 years I have been here, it has forced us to work smarter and harder than other firms separating us from order takers and transforming us into true real estate professionals.
Hobbies: I direct the Siena College Pep Band for all of Siena Colleges Athletic Department, even though this is a job; I consider it a hobby because I have such a love for music and all of the musical instruments I play. Some other hobbies include golf, fishing, and skiing.
