Gabriella Tobbe is a second-year undergraduate at Michigan State University, studying
Finance at Eli Broad College of Business, and plans to pursue a minor in real estate. With
hands-on experience in data analytics and market research, along with interests in asset and
financial management, Gabriella is passionate about leveraging her skills to promote sustainable
investment strategies and a more circular future. Gabriella began her position as a Research
Assistant at the MSU Center for Community and Economic Development (CCED) in October of
2025. Currently, she is working to support the Domicology Research Team to spread awareness
about Domicology in general and promote community visibility for information on the process
of transforming the current wasteful linear building practices to a more sustainable, circular
system. In the future, Gabriella hopes to explore how sustainable financial models can support
both commercial real estate development and building restoration efforts, ensuring that new and
older structures alike minimize waste and maximize long-term value. In her spare time, Gabriella
enjoys pilates, ballet, thrifting, and reading.
