I interned here during my summer after sophomore year in university and I had a great time because of how open and willing my supervisors were in showing me the ropes. They helped me understand the logistics of operating grocery-store anchored shopping centers, broker relationships, leasing, property management, asset management, and so much more. I was very appreciative that they gave me the opportunity to enter the world of commercial real estate early on in my career.
