    I was raised in Commack, attended grades K-12 and graduated from Hofstra University with a Bachelor of Business Administration Degree in Banking & Finance. While having a successful career selling & trading Foreign Exchange for top Wall Street firms, I pursued my true passion by attending a real estate broker licensing course at New York University. Upon receiving my real estate broker’s license I opened my real estate agency. Shortly afterward, business flourished, and I was able to resign from my full-time position on Wall Street.
