Offshore finfish farming is the mass cultivation of finfish in marine waters, in underwater or floating net pens, pods, and cages. Offshore finfish farms are factory farms that harm public health, the environment, and local communities and economies that rely on the ocean and its resources. Don’t Cage Our Oceans are a coalition of diverse organizations working together to stop the development of offshore finfish farming in the United States through federal law, policies, and coalition building. And, although it is not yet happening, right now the US Administration and Congress are promoting this kind of farming, which would be nothing short of disastrous for the oceans, the planet and the people and animals who live here. dontcageouroceans.org…

From soaking up the sun on Israeli beaches to flipping one of the most iconic hotels in NYC, Miki Naftali’s real estate journey is the definition of a wild ride. Miki’s story starts in Israel, but things really took off when he landed at USC and pulled off his first off-market deal in Los Angeles—before he even had a business card. After cutting his teeth in Tel Aviv, he set his sights on the U.S. once again, eventually making waves in the ultra-competitive New York City condo market. Then came the power move: buying and transforming the legendary Plaza Hotel. That deal didn’t just make headlines—it cemented his status as a real estate heavyweight. Fast forward to today, and Miki’s leading Naftali Group, shaping the skylines of NYC and South Florida with high-end residential developments. Talking to Miki felt like stepping into the war room of a real estate empire—big vision, bold strategies, and stories you need to hear about navigating the financial crisis.

Charles Foschini didn’t just bring his A-game to the podcast—he also brought a bottle of Fortaleza tequila (because that’s how deals really get done). Born in New Jersey, Charles went from being a lifeguard and Eagle Scout to escaping the cold and heading straight for the 305. He didn’t just dip his toes in—he dove all in, earning an undergraduate degree, an MBA, and a law degree from the University of Miami. After starting his career brokering office leases, Charles found his true calling in capital markets. Now, as Senior Managing Director at Berkadia, he’s been instrumental in the sale and financing of commercial and multifamily properties totaling over $25 billion , including landmark transactions exceeding $200 million . Before Berkadia, he was Vice Chairman at CBRE, where he ranked as a top national producer. Charles isn’t just a power player in real estate—he’s also shaped the industry as an adjunct professor at the University of Miami’s prestigious LLM program in real property. He’s a sought-after speaker at major real estate conferences like ULI, NAIOP, and ICSC, sharing insights from decades of deal-making. From lifeguarding to law school to leading the charge in commercial real estate finance, Charles has done it all. And in this episode, he shares the stories (and the tequila) that got him here.

Carlos joined us on the podcast over a classic Negroni to share his remarkable journey as a real estate developer. Hailing from a family of architects in Buenos Aires, Carlos earned his architecture degree at the University of Buenos Aires before spending a decade in the Middle East with Besix, mastering the art of construction. His journey then took him to Boston, where he earned a Master’s in Real Estate Development from MIT. In South Florida, Carlos became a pivotal figure in the industry during his nearly 20-year tenure at Related Group as Jorge Pérez’s right hand, serving as the President of Condo Development. During this time, he oversaw the creation of some of Miami’s most iconic projects, including SLS Lux, SLS Brickell, Brickell Heights, Residences by Armani/Casa, and the Paraiso complex in Edgewater, culminating in over 16,000 units developed. Since launching Rosso Development in 2020, Carlos has honed his focus on high-end boutique properties. One standout project is a collaboration with Standard International and Midtown Development—a stunning 12-story condominium with 228 units. With a commitment to enhancing Miami's urban landscape, Carlos is deeply invested in Midtown's evolution, envisioning mixed-use developments that bridge communities and promote walkability.

Her story begins in Cuba, followed by childhood in Puerto Rico and high school in Venezuela.

Tere honed her skills at Codina Realty Services and later led South Florida operations for Cushman & Wakefield. In 2009, she took a leap of faith and founded Blanca Commercial Real Estate, a firm that has since become synonymous with office leasing in Miami.

Jennifer Sanz joined us for a rum & coke and a lively conversation about affordable housing and her journey through politics and real estate development. From her early days at the Pentagon to leading Florida Housing Finance Corporations's tax credit program, Jennifer brings a wealth of experience from both public policy and affordable housing development. Her career began after her dreams of becoming an F-22 fighter pilot were dashed by the Air Force. Instead, she found herself at the heart of U.S. politics, serving as an aide to the Secretary of State during the 2000 election recount—a trial by fire that set the stage for her future work in public service. Jennifer eventually joined Florida Housing, where she made a lasting impact before being recruited to what she jokingly calls "the dark side"—for-profit real estate development. At Pinnacle Housing, she helped build thousands of affordable housing units, overseeing everything from land acquisition to leasing up new communities. This episode is packed with stories, insights, and a refreshing take on how policy and profit can intersect to address housing challenges.

Gopal Rajegowda joined us on The Built World Podcast for a Negroni and a fascinating conversation about his stellar career with Related Companies. As a first-generation Indian-American, Gopal’s journey began in a New York City suburb before taking him to Cornell University. While his passion for real estate and architecture sparked early, it truly ignited during his time at Columbia University, where he earned an M.A. in Real Estate Development. Gopal’s first big splash at Related Companies was The Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas, where he played a pivotal role in retail, hospitality, and placemaking. Post-Vegas, he shifted gears to the monumental Hudson Yards project in NYC. By 2013, Gopal turned his focus to Related’s West Palm Beach portfolio, and by 2016, he made WPB home, spearheading the redevelopment of CityPlace and the Hilton Hotel at the Palm Beach Convention Center.

This week we popped open a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc and took a walk down memory lane with Donna Abood, a true powerhouse in the real estate world. With over 40 years of experience, Donna’s journey is as inspiring as it is impressive. Real estate runs in her veins—her father was a developer in St. Petersburg, but Donna carved her own path. After graduating from FSU, she made the bold move to Miami instead of joining her family’s business. She quickly made waves in property management and brokerage, specializing in office leasing. Donna’s entrepreneurial spirit led her to found Abood & Associates in 1989, where she served as the sole owner and acting principal. In 2002, she joined forces with Michael Fay to create Abood Wood-Fay Real Estate Group, which eventually became part of Avison Young in 2014. There, Donna made history as the first woman Managing Director of an Avison Young office, overseeing everything from business development to tenant and landlord representation across Miami-Dade County. With more than 80 million square feet of office leases under her belt and hundreds of tenant representation deals completed, Donna’s track record speaks for itself. Now, as Vice Chairman and Co-Head of the Florida Region at Savills, she’s leading the charge in expanding the firm’s presence throughout the state. Join us as Donna shares lessons from her storied career, insights on navigating the ever-changing real estate market, and what it takes to be a trailblazer in a competitive industry.

Miami native Stephen Bittel joined us on the podcast, bringing not just his insights but a vintage 1996 bottle of Clos Lascombes to share. Stephen’s story begins with his roots in South Florida, graduating from Palmetto High before heading north to Bowdoin College in Maine. Post-graduation, he explored Europe on a Thomas Watson Fellowship, but his return to Miami marked the start of a remarkable career. While attending the University of Miami School of Law, Stephen worked full-time at a commercial real estate firm to make ends meet. What began as a job to pay the bills quickly evolved into a passion for business. By his second year, a pivotal moment arrived when his firm offered to switch him from a salary to commission-based pay. Instead of taking the offer, Stephen bet on himself — leaving the firm to launch Terranova Corporation from his house in Coral Gables. Fast forward to today: Stephen has grown Terranova into a powerhouse, becoming the largest property owner on both Miracle Mile and Lincoln Road. Beyond his own success, the company has served as a launching pad for many alumni who’ve made significant waves in South Florida’s real estate scene.
