2022 Ones to Watch: Gregory Chakmakas, Shareholder at Sheehan Phinney Bass & Green

What recent project, transaction or accomplishment are you most proud of? I recently made partner at my firm. I am humbled and honored to have the opportunity to work with truly amazing people.

What does it take to succeed in your specific industry? Good judgment and communication skills with an ability to see the bigger picture.

What led you to your current profession? I owe my place in my current profession to my mentor at my firm, Ken Viscarello. He introduced me to commercial real estate and affordable housing. From the start, I truly enjoyed it. The transactional aspect of real estate deals meshed well with my interests and personality.

What are the top 3 items on your bucket list? After 2+ years of the COVID-19 pandemic, my travel bucket list is front of mind: 

  1. Go on a wildlife safari
  2. Island hop around Greece
  3. Attend the Olympics

What are you doing when you aren’t working? Spending time with my wife, 4-year-old daughter, and 1-year-old son.
