An expert with new development projects, Krista represented 30 Park Place, the Four Seasons Private Residences Downtown, and led exclusive sales at Extell’s Central Park Tower on Billionaire’s Row. While at Central Park Tower, she managed the project’s overall marketing, PR, and social media strategy and forged strategic alliances and partnerships. Krista credits those accomplishments to her background at Citi’s Investment Bank and her time at Creative Artists Agency, where she established her relentless work ethic and honed her skills as a negotiator, respectively.

She specializes in TriBeCa and loves working with buyers, investors, and developers. She has appeared on HGTV’s House Hunters, and she has an MBA from New York University Stern School of Business and a BA from the University of Southern California.
