Robert Pucciariello

A born-and-bred New Yorker, Robert has always been fascinated by the way real estate impacts, develops and shapes this city: the beauty of New York’s skyline and integration of the buildings throughout its neighborhoods is truly unlike any other American city. Graduating from Williams College with a degree in Classical Architecture, he ran a foreign exchange trading desk for the British hedge fund Man Group for the majority of his 15-year career on Wall Street. After retiring from capital markets, he founded the biotech company Evolved Nanomaterial Sciences based in Cambridge Massachusetts raising $6 million in private equity financing. Upon returning to New York City in 2008, Robert partnered with the Sydney-based digital marketing agency eBrands and set up their New York office immersing himself in SEO, paid search and website optimization for several NYC-based companies. In 2013, he started a high-end clothing company with his wife Maria leading the creative development of their collection. Their company, Gramercy Atelier, creates bespoke outfits for special occasions in New York’s design district.
