Pioneering triple net-zero developments and modular construction for the clean built environment. Transforming the real estate landscape through innovation.
As Co-Founder and Managing Partner of AoRa Development, I am at the forefront of sustainable real estate innovation in the Greater New York Metropolitan area. With a passion for triple-net-zero energy buildings and modular construction, I'm dedicated to creating a cleaner, more sustainable built environment.
My approach combines creative financing strategies, sustainability expertise, and forward-thinking technology integration to develop projects that deliver superior returns while making a positive environmental impact. I specialize in layering capital stacks to optimize returns and manage complex development projects.
With advanced degrees from Cornell's Commercial Real Estate program and Columbia University's Construction Finance Management certification, I bring a unique blend of expertise in architecture, finance, and technology to the development process. My comprehensive understanding of advanced renewable energy systems includes solar + storage, geothermal, and building automation.
