I am an experienced executive and adviser in commercial real estate with a career that spans entrepreneurial real estate with one of the nation’s largest shopping center developers to a Silicon
Valley RE startup, and later responsible for managing RE portfolios from 7-70 million square feet at Bank of America, H&R Block, Sprint and Cerner. My husband is a real estate developer, and I served 10 years on the board of a 100+ year old regional family-owned real estate and leisure/hospitality company in the Southeast.

I have published on corporate board governance and oversight of CRE in NACD's on-line blog and been a speaker and moderator at CRE industry symposia on a range of CRE topics and corporate governance.
