Paola Rizzuto

Paola Rizzuto is currently the General Manager of a luxury building in Manhattan’s Tribeca neighborhood.

Prior to pursuing a career in the real estate industry where she has managed a diverse range of properties, she obtained a M.S. in Architecture (Environmental Design in Developing Countries) from U.C. Berkeley because she is passionate about projects that breathe new life into the cityscape, especially those that involve creating affordable space for the artists who make up the soul of NYC. Driven by a desire to empower creative talent in the neighborhood she grew up in, she donated a workspace in Bushwick, Brooklyn to Chashama’s Spaces to Create program.

After-hours, you have an equal chance of finding her at an art gallery opening or at a meeting of The Miss-Fires, an all-female club of motor vehicle enthusiasts.
