Warren of TerraCRG: Always room for negotiation

Name: Melissa DiBella Warren Title: Partner & Senior Vice President Company Name: TerraCRG Years in Commercial Real Estate: 8 Who are three women- living or dead - that you would like to have drinks with and why? My mother Karen: She passed away when I was 15, way before I was legally allowed to enjoy wine as much as I do now! She was a perfectionist; she was persistent in getting her way however she always had a charming way of doing so. Especially now as an adult, I would love to hear her thoughts and viewpoints and would greatly appreciate her guidance. What was your first job and what did you learn from it? My first job was working for my father at his Sports Cards and Collectibles retail business. Among many things I learned from my father in life and business, I learned that there is always room for negotiation and you shouldn't let an opportunity go by where you can try to get a better deal!
