Michelle Halpern’s genuine love of New York began while she was growing up in Manhasset on Long Island. She attended The Portledge School in Locust Valley before moving on to American University where she graduated with a degree in International Relations.

Prior to entering the real estate world, Michelle worked as a Public Relations and Marketing Manager for a prestigious auction house that specialized in timepieces. Drawn to the excitement of the auction world and the beauty of rare timepieces, she thrived at organizing world-class watch events and was instrumental in many record-breaking timepiece sales. 

Since becoming a real estate agent, Michelle’s approach has been to first and foremost get to know her client, to best determine what they want and why they want it. This makes it possible for her to find the best possible choices that match their criteria, along with other options that align with their wants and needs. She believes in not only showing clients homes that meet all their specifications, but also excellent options that they may have never thought of before. Michelle knows that New York City is like no other in the world when it comes to real estate and she believes that you can truly find the best of the best here.  

Michelle currently lives on the Upper East Side. She is fluent in Danish and French and has a passion for travel and learning about new cultures. In her spare time, Michelle enjoys attending cultural events, exploring new neighborhoods, and taking advantage of everything New York City has to offer.
