Talking
with Talent
Tell us a little more about
you:
I was born and raised in
Montreal, Québec, Canada to
Italian immigrant parents and I
now live in Europe. I have been
exposed to different cultures
and languages all my life. I
speak four languages and am
starting to learn a fifth (Dutch)!
This has helped me to not only
be a better person, but also
be more business savvy in our
globalized profession.
Notable industry achievement:
Managing a 265,000 square
foot campus development
project for one of our largest
global clients.
What’s something you’re most
proud of?
Primarily starting
a family, but then following
our hearts by moving to
Amsterdam – our favorite city in
the world.
Is there a quote you live your
life by?
“No matter how difficult
or negative a situation can
be, you must find a positive
focus on that and spin it into
something good.”
What would most people be
surprised to learn about you?
I used to own a small green
roofing company during my
university days and my projects
have been featured on the
front page of the Montreal
newspaper twice.
Why do you enjoy working
at Cushman & Wakefield and
in the commercial real estate
industry?
I really like the real
estate industry because it is so
diverse and challenging. We
service numerous industries, so
you get to learn a little about
everything. There is always
something new and exciting to
experience. I enjoy working at
Cushman & Wakefield mostly
because of the people. I’ve
worked with many smart,
energetic, fun, and professional
colleagues. I feel privileged that
working here has allowed me to
make friends all over the globe!
