Alex brings over a decade of commercial real estate asset management experience, having worked for some of the largest global institutional platforms including Goldman Sachs and PGIM Real Estate. He has covered a wide array of property types across various US markets and was responsible for executing business plans across the spectrum including core to value-add and opportunistic investment strategies.
Alex holds a BSBA from Georgetown University’s McDonough School of Business where he majored in Finance and Operations Information Management as well as a Certificate in Real Estate Finance and Investment from NYU Schack Institute of Real Estate.
“Having worked together previously, I’ve seen first hand how Alex’s combination of intellectual curiosity, hard work, and humility mitigated risk in the investments which he oversaw,” said Joseph Sumberg, Head of Galvanize Real Estate. “While at Goldman Sachs, Alex was an early adopter of ESG initiatives and proactively implemented sustainability programs within the assets that he managed to create value. I’m ecstatic to have Alex join the Galvanize Real Estate team where he will reunite with many of his former colleagues.”
“I’m thrilled to join a firm that has built a strategy around the understanding that decarbonization and attractive risk-adjusted returns go hand in hand,” said Munoz. “Galvanize Real Estate’s ability to leverage data, in-house scientists, and technical expertise to apply a differentiated lens to real estate investing is truly distinctive and I look forward to leveraging those tools to create value for our investors.”
