From the Opera Stage to Real Estate Success

Not Your Typical Real Estate Agent.

Most agents come from finance or law. I came from the opera stage and the classroom.

Before real estate, I was a professional operatic tenor with a degree from the Manhattan School of Music. I taught middle school chorus to 435 students!!!! Teaching those kids taught me more about negotiation, patience and communicating more than any sales seminar ever could.

The transition to real estate wasn’t random. Teaching and performing gave me something most agents don’t have: the ability to truly listen, read the room, and stay calm when the pressure’s on. In real estate, those skills matter more than you’d think.

Markets I Know Inside and Out

I don’t just sell neighborhoods. I’ve lived them, studied them, and built relationships in them. 

Whether it’s the hustle and bustle of NYC, where performance and transaction volume matter, or the suburbs of Pittsburgh, where relationships are more valuable, each move has taught me something new and resonates with my core. Whether you’re buying in the Steel City or selling in Manhattan, you get the same level of expertise and dedication.

This isn’t theoretical knowledge. I know what it’s like to weigh school districts against commute times, to fall in love with a building’s amenities, and to make the leap from renter to owner. When I walk you through a neighborhood, I’m sharing lived experience, not rehearsed talking points.

A Track Record Built on Results

Numbers tell a story, and mine represents hundreds of families who found homes and sellers who got top dollar.

Over $700M in career sales. $55M sold in 2025 alone. 93 transactions in NYC and PGH. Across 53 Google reviews and 172 Zillow reviews, I maintain a perfect 5.0-star rating. From Manhattan penthouses to Pittsburgh family homes, I bring the same strategic approach and commitment to results.

But here’s what those numbers really mean: clients who trusted me with their biggest financial decision got results that exceeded expectations.

Inside Access Others Don't Have

Here’s something most agents can’t offer: I have served on condo boards in Battery Park City and Long Island City and am an investor in multi-family homes in Buffalo, NY. That means I can view deals from all sides of the table.

I understand building financials, board dynamics, evaluating cash flow, figuring out how best to improve a property for increasing equity, and what management companies actually do with your maintenance fees.

I know what boards look for in buyer packages and can spot red flags in reserve funds before you make an offer. It’s an advantage that changes everything.

SERHANT. Broker

Joining SERHANT. and working alongside Ryan Serhant (yes, the Ryan Serhant from Million Dollar Listing and Owning Manhattan) gave me access to a global marketing platform that most agents can only dream about.

You get the exposure and resources of a powerhouse brand with the personal attention of an agent who answers his own phone. Big firm resources, small firm attention. That’s the advantage.

The #KlimaChange Approach

My philosophy is simple.

1

Educate First

You should understand the market before making decisions. Knowledge reduces anxiety and leads to better outcomes.

2

Honesty Over Commission

I’ll tell you when NOT to buy or sell if that’s what’s best for you. Long-term relationships matter more than quick deals.

3

Communication is Everything

I return calls and texts quickly, keep you informed at every step, and never leave you guessing.

4

Your Goals, Not Mine

Every client has different needs. Cookie-cutter approaches don’t work in New York City or Pittsburgh.
