Michael’s professional experience working with a range of clients and vendors prepared him well to serve his real estate clients and their needs. He takes great pride in putting his client’s objectives and aspirations first, in a professional and discreet manner.
Michael honed his abilities as a strategic analyst and a counselor to senior management, government policy makers, business and community leaders as a graduate of the Public Affairs Counsel’s prestigious Public Affairs Institute. He knows how to analyze unique situations and present creative solutions for clients to meet their goals and targets.
Michael came to Washington to work on Capitol Hill, planning to return to Buffalo after a few years in DC. However, like so many, he got ‘Potomac Fever' and Washington has been home since. A snow skier, Michael taught handicapped children to ski for several years. He has been a member and chairman of multiple committees at Holy Trinity parish in Georgetown, and is a leader in his neighborhood of Foxhall Village in upper Georgetown. A passionate dog owner, Michael enjoys live entertainment, hiking and relaxing by the shore!
