Jay, Managing Partner
Jay’s family ownership of Savage Mill began in 1950. He placed the Mill on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974 and began a 13 year process of renovating and transforming the 175,000 sq. ft. complex in 1984 and his company, AJ Properties has managed the Mill ever since. Jay has extensive experience in development, renovation and management in many types of real estate but his passion has always been focused on cultivating and supporting small businesses and their growth.

I joined the team in 1988 with a background of finance and construction. I grew up in a historic house and love working on unique properties and figuring out the best way to handle situations. The Mill of course is a wonderful one of a kind and requires lots of unique solutions. I enjoy working with our tenants and contractors to provide the best for us and our wonderful tenants.
