About

Phil started his career by co-founding a college business in 2010 that was later sold as a revenue share at graduation. He founded and briefly started work on a music media company, mPulsify, before joining LG Fairmont as its first employee in 2012.

At LG Fairmont, Phil focused his efforts on the Beacon platform: a real estate software solution which encompasses client generation, algorithmic client / agent matching, a proprietary CRM, and a client-facing search and landlord portal. LG Fairmont was acquired by Compass in 2022.

After LG Fairmont, Phil founded Alice Capital, an investment and consulting company that developed digital products both for themselves and as consultancy projects for businesses in a variety of industries.

Most recently, Phil joined EisnerAmper to deliver custom software and sales systems to firms in the real estate industry. Focusing on the brokerage, lending and portfolio side of the business, the software solutions group provides a variety of technology services for the complex needs of its clients.

A self-taught developer, Phil studied economics and philosophy at Villanova University. Phil grew up in New Jersey, London, and Connecticut. He currently resides in Washington Heights with his wife Emily & their dog Chickpea.
