Matt has several high-level responsibilities, including directing operations of the lease advisory and disposition practices, business development, and developing and executing comprehensive strategies to maximize clients’ portfolio value (or minimize costs). A trusted advisor to financial institutions, bankers, advisory firms and executive teams, Matt has worked with clients across multiple industries and ranging from the strongest corporations to those in distress and/or bankruptcy. He has led Hilco’s Starbucks relationship for over a decade, assisting the company with asset management throughout North America, including Starbucks store leases and the wind down of Teavana as well as other top retailers such as Lowe’s, Dollar Tree Family Dollar, Tailored Brands, and Visionworks, among many others.
