CERVERA REAL ESTATE,INC. MIAMI BEACH,FLORIDA 2011-PRESENT PREVIOUS PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE DIRECTOR OF SALES,SITE COORDINATOR,SALES AGENT 2004-2011 Carson Realty/now Douglas Elliman Florida Miami,Florida In the time I have been with Carson Realty, I have grown with the company starting out as Broker Associate. Since joining the team I have been entrusted to work on four projects as site coordinator and director of sales as described: CITY 24,MIAMI,FLORIDA - I was recruited to sell the remaining units of a Preconstruction condominium project that was 70% sold. Through heavy networking and aggressive strategies I succeeded in exceeding the developer's goals without having a model to show or on site sales office. THE STERLING. WEST PALM BEACH. FLORIDA - For this condominium conversion project I was hired to oversee and organize an anticipated quick sellout. I was liaison between sales and project management. I implemented several successful programs with lenders, realtors and buyers which contributed to meeting our sales goal. THE ANGLERS BOUTIQUE RESORT, MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA This condominium — hotel project required extensive knowledge of Securities Exchange Laws pertaining to the sale of Condo Hotels by Licensed Real Estate Agents. As Director of Sales, I trained agents on Presentation, Hospitality Management, and Securities Exchange Regulations. We successfully sold a relatively unknown product in the marketplace to local, national and international clients. COLUMBUS LANDING. GRAND TURK This first and only 5 Star Condominium Hotel located on Grand Turk Island in the Turks and Caicos. Beach front living with interiors designed by Venus Williams. I was part of a three person sales team responsible for sales of 700 -2000 sq/ft units. Sales began July 2007 with 20 of 60 units sold as of February 2008. Hurricane closed the project. www.ColumbusLanding.com. DIRECTOR OF SALES,SITE COORDINATOR 1992-2004 Robert Marini Builders Albany,NY I have grown with the company starting out as Site Coordinator and lead sales associate. My position immediately advanced to Director of Sales and lead Site Coordinator. In addition, I was responsible for recruiting, screening, hiring and training all sales agents for new home sales. I implemented key strategies, policies and procedures for the company. I was instrumental in all phases of subdivisions from site review,highest and best use,market analysis,model home selection, options/upgrades,and projections through to model openings, staffing and sales. I assisted the marketing department with buyer profiles and coordinated grand opening events, VIP parties and Co-Broke campaigns. I developed a successful networking system that increased sales within the Co- Broke community and with relocation buyers. At the time of joining Marini Builders,a third generation local family owned and operated business for nearly 25 years and an up-and-coming new home builder, I was intrigued with their forward thinking and innovative ideas. Within 2 years our combined efforts brought Robert Marini Builders to Area's #1 New Home Builder in the Capital Region. www.marini.com SITE COORDINATOR 1988-1992 The Michaels Group Malta,NY Considered the Capital Regions #1 Premier New home builder for 40 years.At The Michaels Group I was responsible for all aspects of new home sales and site coordinating. www.michaelsjzroup.com SITE COORDINATOR 1987- 1988 Falcon Pace Schenectady,New York Was one of three key people within the company that focused on sales and marketing exclusively for builders.
