Real Estate Development & Facilities Executive | Acquisitions, Entitlements, Construction & Operations
I believe physical expansion shouldn’t feel overwhelming, but for most founders, it does. Permitting delays, unclear timelines, managing contractors, figuring out where to even start… it gets messy fast. That’s where I come in. I’ve spent the last decade leading real estate, development, and facilities across 500+ locations in all 50 U.S. states and the UK, at companies like CloudKitchens, Gopuff + BevMo!, and Primer. I’ve worked across traditional assets like multifamily, office, and commercial, as well as new asset classes like ghost kitchens, micro-fulfillment centers, and microschools, taking ideas from concept to fully operational at scale. What I help with: ✅ Market strategy, site selection, and deal structuring ✅ Permitting, entitlements, and city approvals ✅ Construction management and project execution ✅ Facilities strategy and multi-site operations ✅ Opening your first location or scaling from 1 to many Most founders don’t get stuck on the idea, they get stuck in execution. I help you figure out what to do next, avoid costly mistakes, and move forward with clarity and confidence. If you’re building in the real world and want to move faster with fewer surprises, I’d love to connect.
