Our Management Team Is Led By Mikel Elliott, Managing Partner and Vasco Noya di Lannoy, Chief Investment Officer.
Mikel (pronounced like Micheal, not Mick-el) is a native Angeleno, UCLA grad and the former CEO and Co-Founder of Quixote Studios. Starting with one custom designed production motorhome in 1995 Mikel and his team built a formidable empire of equipment, film studios and production vehicles to service the film industry. Quixote went on to become the definitive lifestyle crew brand to the entertainment industry. In the fall of 2022, with close to $100m in revenues and 325 employees, Mikel sold Quixote to a public company. When Mikel is not pursuing new ways to grow and laugh he enjoys mt. biking, fitness, golf, reading and his family.
Vasco manages and leads the expansion of ELC’s commercial real estate portfolio which is focused on industrial and media-related assets.
He has invested in alternative assets, private equity and real estate for over 20 years, holds an MBA from UCLA and has been involved in transactions totaling $500m.
Vasco was born in Rome and has studied and worked in Paris and Los Angeles. He now lives in Notting Hill with his wife and son. When he’s not chasing real estate deals, Vasco enjoys alpine skiing, competitive padel, visiting art galleries and spending time with friends and family!
In Jerry’s previous life he was a bonafide rock star (think Nirvana) and music producer. After building out state of the art music studios he decided to hang up the guitar and come to work for Quixote. After 13 years at Quixote Jerry left to become the Director of Operations for Epicenter Landcorp. Jerry oversees all of our properties with extreme care and diligence. Jerry has a great eye for design and functionality.
Born and raised in the Soviet Republic of Belarus, I swapped ice-cold winters for American opportunity and a newfound appreciation for imperfect coffee. I’m a finance professional and proud member of the ELC team, keeping numbers honest, meetings mercifully brief, and budgets decidedly less dramatic. Off the clock my greatest passion is family.
When Dana is not annoying senior management about cost controls and balance sheet trickery he deftly directs all of ELCS Accounting activities.
