We’re always growing our team.
I am lucky enough to have a beautiful family of five children. We love to adventure, travel and explore new cities. Adventure is in the O'Brien blood, so we picked up and moved to New Zealand. Coming from New York City and Greenwich, CT, we appreciated the vastness of New Zealand and welcomed the change of pace. Although New Zealand will always have a place in my heart, New York City will always be my home. All of my ventures have been inspired by my children... maybe even the vodka.
Having lived and worked in New York City for more than 30 years, I offer experience of the all-important, yet often imperceptible, nuances of each neighborhood. Finding the city's hidden gems is one of my greatest passions, and am driven by creating real value on behalf of my grateful and loyal clientele.
