Summary
I’m an Investment Sales Advisor focused on multifamily and student housing properties across the Midwest. I spend my time analyzing deals, building pricing models, and studying market trends to help investors make confident, data-driven decisions. I’ve created numerous pricing analyses for investors in the Midwest suburbs and contributed to a successful team sale of a multifamily property in Chicago’s Ukrainian Village. What I enjoy most about my work is connecting with property owners, understanding their goals, and finding creative ways to position their assets in a competitive market. With a background in finance and consulting, I bring a mix of analytical thinking, communication skills, and genuine curiosity to every project I take on.
