Her company provides transactional representation, brokerage and consulting services exclusively for corporate users of office and industrial properties, serving a clientele ranging from entrepreneurial and governmental entities to Fortune 500 companies.

Anderson earned the prestigious SIOR designation, based on business volume, and is a Certified Commercial Investment Member of the CCIM Institute, denoting a graduate level education in commercial real estate investment. She has been highlighted by the Washington Business Journal in the category of largest office lease transactions and was named a “Woman of Influence” by Virginia Lawyers Media, which annually recognizes the outstanding efforts of women in all fields.
