Switching from Real Estate Finance into Hedge Fund world

Has anyone successfully crossed over from CRE into Hedge Fund world? I'm an acquisitions associate in NYC RE but I could not be more jaded with the current cycle. Have been reading tons of trading books and feel I am now more interested in finance. I am 28 and considering going for my MBA. Anyone here happen to have any insight?
