It's rare that you come across a standout talent like Grant. I had the pleasure of working with Grant at Equity Office where he demonstrated a tremendous ability represent us as our broker. I was particularly impressed with his knowledge of the West LA market and his thoughtfulness in adapting to our processes. Grant would be an asset to any team.

Grant is a standout individual. He is someone who goes well beyond the industry knowledge and market landscape. He successfully navigated a lease extension and space expansion while being personable and professional. I trust his ability and approach as he was instrumental in helping the business secure a great opportunity that could have otherwise proved quite difficult.
