After attending Brooklyn College, Maureen became a personal banker, customer service and client relations professional at multiple institutions in West Africa and the Eastern United States.

For over 30 years, she worked at large banks such as Chase Manhattan and its predecessors, Ecobank and SunTrust Bank.

In 2014, she founded her own real estate consulting venture, Lake Overlook Partners LLC. Soon thereafter, she started investing in New York City distressed properties.

Her early success led to Brownstone NYC Inc, her family led real estate business. After investing millions of dollars of private equity funding into the rapidly recovering New York area Real Estate market, Maureen has assembled a portfolio of moderate-income housing throughout New York City and Westchester County.

Today, dozens of families live in quality BNYC developed and owned housing.  She is leading the next company growth phase which includes but is not limited to building a robust vertically integrated real estate venture with a social enterprise bent.
