  My path to real estate began in 2001 when I moved with her husband to the United States. After more than a decade practicing corporate law in the European Union, I turned my attention to settling my family in a new culture. During these first years in the United States, I seized the opportunity to reconnect with a lifelong appreciation for gardening by earning a certificate in Landscape Design from the Bronx Botanical Garden. Living in Manhattan, I've had the experience of purchasing and renovating co-op apartments, which led me to pursue a new career as a real estate broker. Since joining Brown Harris Stevens in 2006, I have represented many Europeans – particularly Italians – who are looking to buy or rent a residence in New York City or invest in residential property here. I have developed particular expertise assisting foreign nationals in the purchase of co-op apartments, which offer many advantages, but often present unique and complex challenges. Through my work, I've become the bridge between two different cultures – Italian and American. I work with the human resources departments of companies in the temporary or permanent relocation of employees from locations abroad to New York City. Her knowledge of the various lifestyles available in the city’s many neighborhoods as well as my own experience of moving to a new culture to guide these clients as they begin a new phase in their life. My representation of clients seeking investment properties ranges from identifying promising residences or buildings in central Manhattan, Harlem, and Brooklyn, to providing post-acquisition services. I am, for example, available to oversee property management and make introductions to additional needed professionals such as accountants and attorneys. My extensive experience with contracts and negotiations enables me to offer sound advice and provide strong representation to all of my clients. Show less
