Background & Experience
Prior to joining NAI Capital, Michael was Managing Director of West Coast Leasing with International Airport Centers L.L.C. (IAC). From 1997 to 2016, Michael grew his capabilities and negotiation skills at IAC.

With experience on both sides of a transaction, Michael knows what buyers and sellers are looking for when acquiring or disposing of industrial real estate. While at IAC, he sourced new investment opportunities which resulted in the acquisition of vacant land for development as well as several million square feet of existing warehouse/distribution real estate. He has represented clients in the purchase of functionally obsolete buildings, in land constrained markets, and redeveloped them into new functional space.
