Paul Rubacha enjoys engaging with Cornell’s PRE students- so much so that for nearly thirty years he has participated as a guest lecturer and panelist for various real estate courses at Cornell. In Fall 2006 he again had a chance to present a class on warehouse and industrial development and found the students to be superb. The students drew from their prior work experiences to ask great questions, thought of cross-over issues with other property types they had studied and of course, related the discussion to their career opportunities.
Paul is a principal at Ashley Capital and CEO. He has primary responsibility for all financing and capital transactions. Paul supervises a professional staff located in four cities and oversees all facets of acquisitions, development and management of Ashley’s twenty five million square foot portfolio.
Prior to co-founding Ashley Capital, Paul served in senior capacities within the Real Estate Departments of Goldman Sachs, Citibank and Prudential Insurance Company. He holds both an undergraduate degree and MBA from Cornell University. Paul has been a real estate lecturer at several universities and served as a panelist for various organizations including the Urban Land Institute, the U.S. Department of Transportation and Institutional Investor magazine. He has been awarded the distinction of Counselor of Real Estate (CRE).
Paul lives with his wife, who is a National Board Chairman of Outward Bound USA, and his two children in New York City.
