Just finished up my thesis at MIT in real estate, specifically data centers. I'm in the market for a job so send it along to anyone that may have any interest. (X-Post from r/datacenter)

As for jobs, I'm open to virtually anything - I'd prefer development and it doesn't necessarily have to be in data centers. My previous experience has been in hotel acquisition and multifamily development.

Unfortunately I don't know anyone that is investing in data centers, so I can't help you out much. I was under the impression that the thesis at MIT was supposed to be done in the summer or fall (if you take an internship).  Did you take extra classes, or spend a lot of time on research, or...?", "replies": [{"id": "d1dbe4d", "text": "If you finish up in the Fall it's due on Jan. 8, and then it has to be reviewed before acceptance.
