An operator's approach to commercial real estate.

My path into real estate began on the construction side as a Project Engineer at Gibbs Construction, a leading commercial general contractor in Louisiana and across the Gulf Coast. At Gibbs, I managed RFIs, change orders, and project closeout while gaining insight into how buildings are designed, budgeted, and constructed.

After my time at Gibbs, I spent two years as a Development Associate at Verdad Real Estate Development, where I was a member of a fully integrated team responsible for more than 600 projects across 36 states and $1.5B in transaction volume. At Verdad, I evaluated over 6,000 self storage development and acquisition opportunities throughout North America and drove the pipeline through a metrics-focused deal-tracking system. My work spanned site selection, site planning, budgeting, and tenant presentations for operators such as Extra Space Storage. I researched zoning and land use regulations across hundreds of municipalities, built relationships throughout a national broker network to surface off-market opportunities, and underwrote acquisitions while preparing investor materials for significant debt and equity raises.

Today I serve as Operating Partner at the Louis Park Hotel, a historic New Orleans boutique property that has generated more than $1M in revenue in its first 18 months. I run the asset day to day, from underwriting and due diligence to renovation, licensing, and ongoing operations.

I am also a licensed real estate agent and have represented various clients in transactions across New Orleans. I understand construction costs, institutional underwriting, and what it takes to run an asset once the ink is dry.
