What person, project, transaction, or market trend had the greatest impact on your industry this year?
The return to in-person shopping has had the most significant impact on the retail market. After two years of too many vacant storefronts and concern about the future of brick-and-mortar retail, retailers are again filling up empty storefronts.

Working with my committee, I am excited to develop our in-person luncheon series bringing some of the top industry experts and dealmakers to speak.
