Professional Experience
Melinda Miller joined Winick Realty Group in the Spring of 2012 with a focus on both landlord and tenant representation. Ms. Miller has been appointed to handle the marketing of some of New York City’s most prestigious flagship properties. She was recently selected by Walter & Samuels to manage the leasing of their New York City retail real estate portfolio, which has not been exclusively outsourced in more than 50 years.
Ms. Miller brings extensive experience to her role at Winick Realty Group, having worked with major national retail brands such as Starbucks, which she managed exclusively on behalf of Breslin Realty on Long Island. During her tenure at Breslin Realty, Ms. Miller oversaw the selection of multiple Starbucks retail sites in both Nassau and Suffolk counties, and she has worked with several well-known tenants, including Beach Bum Tanning. She also served as the Director of Leasing for a developer in downtown St. Louis, MO, where she secured American Apparel’s first executed lease in the market, as well as 22,000 sf of office space to progressive wind energy company Wind Capital and a 3,000 sf store on Washington Avenue in downtown St. Louis to a local apparel company within seven months of being with the company.
A native of southern Missouri, Ms. Miller graduated from the University of Tennessee with a degree in Business Administration.
