Originally from the Republic of Moldova in Eastern Europe, Rodica has had a longtime passion for real estate and began investing at the age of 21. She still owns several properties in Moldova and Armenia that are rented to embassies, diplomatic corporations, investors, and businessmen. Rodica has also owned and rented on both the Upper West and the Upper East Side of Manhattan where she is raising her four children, making her particularly empathetic to the joys and challenges of maintaining a comfortable family life in NYC.

Rodica graduated from New York University with honors and a BA, MA, and MPA and she is fluent in English, Romanian, Russian, conversant in French and Spanish, and possesses basic knowledge of Italian. She loves NYC’s museums, art galleries, and parks, as well as taking her kids swimming, bike riding, and pastry shopping. Her four kids currently attend Lycee Francais de New York and Columbia Grammar and Preparatory School where she is an active parent and volunteer for the Fall Festival, Spring Fair, Book Club, and a Grade Ambassador for the Annual Fund.…
