I was born in Sicily and raised in Astoria. I’ve met people from all walks of life — and every time, there’s a connection.
Maybe it’s something in the universe. I had a woman on the phone once — we’d never met, but it turned out we were both born in Sicily, both raised in Astoria, and even had the same name in our family. That’s what I love about this business.
​
But for me, it goes even deeper.
​
I’m proud to be the fourth generation in my family to do this work. My great-grandfather, grandfather, and father were all in this business before me — buying, selling, appraising, and most importantly, building trust with every person they met. I’m honored to carry that tradition forward, with the same integrity they taught me.
People come to me with things that matter. Sometimes they’re letting go of a piece of family history. Sometimes they just need someone they can trust. Either way, I take it seriously.
​
I don’t do pressure. I tell people the truth. If something has value, I’ll tell you. If it doesn’t, I’ll tell you that too. You decide what feels right.
​
That’s how I work — honest, simple, and respectful. Always.
