The first thing I learned as a lawyer is …
to already be thinking about selling even when you’re still buying.
I’m fascinated by …
the unbelievably varied architecture in Chicago, where I spent a part of my legal training and during which I spent a lot of time on long walks exploring the city.
The best part of my job is …
the intensive and long term cooperation with the transaction and asset-management teams of our clients – often with a lot of humour, especially during hectic phases.
For me, being a lawyer means …
guiding clients through difficult terrain like a Sherpa – through complex real estate investments but also with pro-bono clients, when charitable organisations need support with large and small problems.
