Hi, I'm !

I help commercial real estate investors protect capital, reduce risk, and execute smarter, more profitable strategies. My work centers on one goal: improving investor outcomes in complex, high‑stakes environments where traditional brokerage, legal counsel, or consultants are not enough.

With forty years of experience across institutional underwriting, federal real estate, commercial brokerage leadership, conflict psychology, and real estate law, I bring investors a multidimensional advantage. I combine CCIM‑level investment analysis, legal and regulatory expertise, and a Doctorate in Psychology focused on conflict resolution and mediation to solve problems that directly impact returns.

Investors rely on me to:

  • Protect capital by preventing and resolving disputes before they become costly
  • Increase deal certainty through advanced negotiation and stakeholder alignment
  • Improve acquisition quality with institutional‑grade underwriting and behavioral decision‑making insights
  • Optimize tax strategy through 1031 exchanges, cost segregation, and deferred sales trusts
  • Navigate regulatory and legal complexity with precision
  • Access global and government opportunities through CIPS expertise and federal contracting experience

I’ve negotiated more than $2 billion in commercial financing and transactions across multifamily, industrial, and retail assets. My background includes serving as a Real Estate Contracting Officer for the U.S. Department of Transportation (FAA) and an Administrative Law Judge for Illinois’ Property Tax Appeal Board—experience that gives investors a rare level of insight into compliance, government leasing, and risk mitigation.

As a researcher and educator, I’ve contributed to the National Association of Realtors as a Research Ambassador, Commercial Research Advisory Director, and Magazine Advisory Board Member, and I teach CCIM and CIPS courses internationally. Investors benefit from the same market intelligence and strategic frameworks I teach to industry professionals.

My value is simple: I help investors make better decisions, avoid costly mistakes, and execute strategies that strengthen long‑term portfolio performance.

If you’re scaling a portfolio, navigating a complex transaction, or seeking a strategic adviser who integrates investment analysis, legal insight, and conflict‑resolution psychology, let’s connect.
