ABOUT YVES:

Born and raised in Switzerland, Yves joined Corcoran Country Living after working in the film industry as an award-winning producer. 

Before starting his career in real estate, Yves collaborated for several years with HBO and worked with top celebrities in New York City, Paris and Geneva on TV and film projects. Prior to his experience in entertainment, Yves worked in the hospitality industry and is passionate about taking care of his clients — giving particular attention to their unique needs. 

After years of urban life, Yves and his wife, Katharine, a food anthropologist, decided to embrace the tranquil yet culturally rich life that the Hudson Valley offers. Well-traveled and curious, Yves speaks 6 languages and maintains his connections to the international community in NYC. Having studied at the Gerriet Rietveld Arts Academy in Amsterdam, he has developed a keen eye for art, design and architecture. 

As a fervent chef and avid hiker, Yves regularly supports local farms and takes advantage of the numerous gorgeous hiking trails across upstate New York. His signature dish is a Spanish paella, which you can find him preparing on most summer weekends for friends and family. 

Yves will always be ready to take the extra mile for you. He strongly believes in educating his clients through the process of buying and selling real estate. Should you want to sell your house or acquire your next home, he will guide you through this process, update you on market conditions and negotiate with utmost transparency and respect for each party.
