About the Listing Agent

LISTING AGENT

Coldwell Banker Realty - Cambridge

Minka’s first job out of college was in an MIT lab working on cancer research. From there she moved to McLean Hospital to research Alzheimer's disease. Those lab experiences made her realize she wanted to continue her studies in the medical area and she attended Boston University School of Public Health to study epidemiology (study of epidemics) and environmental health. After getting her Master's in Public Health, Minka worked for the Massachusetts Department of Public Health in Jamaica Plain. Many years later, she was recruited to help run a startup biotech company initially to understand a third world disease caused by a parasitic nematode. Gradually the company grew and they took on drug discovery projects using nematodes with a neurological focus. After a decade, they sold the company and she joined a non-profit medical research company with a mission to cure Huntington's disease, a devastating neurological disease. Minka left that company in 2005 to pursue more community engagement in her Cambridge neighborhood. By 2011 she was elected to the Cambridge City Council by the residents of Cambridge who she had listened to and helped over the years. Now as a real estate agent in the area, Minka continues her mission to listen to and help people. If you need guidance selling, buying or renting your property, let her help you too.
