Ray began his commercial real estate journey in late 2022 and quickly built a focused portfolio in mobile home parks and industrial assets. In just three years, he and his business partner grew their holdings to nine mobile home parks totaling 280 doors and three industrial properties with 110,000 square feet in Central Florida. With strengths in deal sourcing, negotiations, underwriting, and operations, Ray brings both analytical discipline and practical execution. He holds an MBA from NYU and a Ph.D. in engineering from the University of Missouri, previously served as a finance executive at IBM in New York, and now works as a full-time CFO for a manufacturing company in Orlando.
