President’s Message

I am honored to be your President for 2024. NAIOP means the world to me! The organization has been essential to my career development. My first deep dive in engaging with NAIOP SFBA was through the Young Professionals Group (YPG), a program in which I had the good fortune to participate in 2016. YPG made a profound impact on me. I went on to co-chair the Young Professionals Group Alumni Committee and the Membership Committee, and was later appointed to the Board.

On behalf of the NAIOP SFBA Board of Directors and the entire leadership team I want to share our vision statement which will flow through our annual agenda as well as our committees and our events.

Our vision is to be a trusted source and affiliation for commercial real estate:

  • An effective advocate for commercial real estate policies
  • A collaborative and educational event and content provider
  • A financially sound organization
  • A diverse and well-connected network
  • A resource for career development, providing education opportunities for all career stages
