What inspired you to pursue a career in commercial real estate, and what path brought you to your current role? I was drawn to commercial real estate because of its ability to shape how people live and interact with their environment. My path has centered around building partnerships and driving growth in service-based models tied to real estate. That led me to Elite Wellness Amenity Group, where I focus on scaling wellness infrastructure that aligns resident experience with asset performance.

What accomplishment or project so far in your career are you most proud of? I’m most proud of helping scale a partnership-driven growth strategy that positions wellness as a performance layer within real estate. My work has focused on aligning operators, ownership groups, and service delivery to create measurable impact across engagement, retention, and resident experience. Building that alignment across stakeholders has been especially meaningful.

Who has been a mentor or influential figure in your career, and what is the most valuable advice they have shared with you? I’ve been fortunate to work alongside leaders who emphasize clarity, accountability, and long-term thinking. One piece of advice that has stayed with me is to focus on building systems, not just outcomes. That perspective has shaped how I approach partnerships – ensuring they are structured to scale, deliver consistency, and create value beyond the initial opportunity.

What trends or opportunities do you see shaping the future of commercial real estate? The future of commercial real estate will be shaped by how assets perform operationally, not just how they are built. As amenities become standardized, differentiation will come from experience, engagement, and consistency. There is a growing opportunity in wellness infrastructure and partnership models that align resident behavior with asset performance and long-term retention.
