What recent project, transaction or accomplishment are you most proud of? The accomplishment I am most proud of is working to establish Northstar, an owner’s project management firm, as a market leader in the life science sector for corporate and institutional clients. We’ve partnered with top pharmaceutical companies and major institutions helping them navigate challenging mergers, spin-offs, and realignments so they can further their mission of discovering lifesaving therapies and medicine. Today, Northstar has led the transformation or development of over 5 million s/f of R&D and manufacturing space in the Greater Boston area.
