In 1998, 1 relocated to Miami Beach to open Bresaro Suites at the Mantell Plaza with my life
partner, Patrick Pecoraro specializing in daily, weekly and monthly rentals. www.bresaro.com
I looked at the move to Miami Beach as a transition to retirement. What I now realize is it was just a
transition in life. I got the opportunity to look at our community and see how I could make a
difference in the quality life, not just for us, but for the lives of the people around us. I feel I've made
a difference and am well respected within the community. I have been a member of the Collins
Park Neighborhood Association since 2003 and president since 2007. www.coilinspark.us
The thing I like most about myself is that when I start something, I will work tirelessly to complete it.
I am an excellent problem solver and am most frustrated by the amount of time it takes to get
things done.
The thing I like least about myself is that I can be a procrastinator in starting a project because I
know how I'll be once I start.
I am honest, trustworthy and a good team player. If I feel something is wrong, I'll say so. I will also
say how I think it can be fixed.
I have completed the City of Miami Beach's Leadership Academy, The C.E.R.T. program, and the
Citizen's Police Academy. I am currently signed up for the advance Police Academy course to
begin in November, 2013.
