Michael has managed all of Aria’s commercial assets since 2007, including commercial acquisitions to the curation of tenants and leasing of retail spaces. With the purpose of creating positive public change and an ability to recognise the potential in spaces, he has been integral in creating and curating Aria’s Fish Lane and Edward Street precincts through procuring iconic retailers and public art artists to shape unique experiences for those who interact with Aria’s spaces. Building goodwill through fostering relationships with key stakeholders and the food and beverage industry is key for Michael in forming communities and transforming commercial buildings into icons for the city.
