Orlando, Fla. (July 31, 2024) – Foundry Commercial, a leading, full-service real estate services and investment firm, is proud to announce that Senior Vice President Sarah Godwin, Senior Vice President Keely Hines, and Corporate Controller and Partner Mary Beth Paris have been named to GlobeSt.’s Women of Influence 2024 list.
GlobeSt’s Women of Influence program honors remarkable women who have demonstrated excellence, innovation, and dedication in their respective roles, contributing significantly to the advancement and success of the real estate sector. As stated by the publication, “… these individuals have personally impacted the market and have significantly driven the industry to new heights via their outstanding successes.”
“We are extremely proud that Mary Beth, Keely, and Sarah were recognized on this list. Each one of them has uniquely impacted Foundry and the industry at large,” said Paul Ellis, CEO of Foundry Commercial. “This honor is well-deserved by all parties, and it is exciting to watch each of their career paths unfold.”
- Godwin co-leads the Land Services team in the Raleigh office and has quickly made a name for herself in the largely male-dominated asset class. She specializes in institutional land investment sales and development advisory services and has sold more than $840 million in greenfield and redevelopment land.
- Hines, based in Charlotte, focuses on landlord leasing, having been with Foundry since 2018. She focuses on project leasing of grocery anchored neighborhood centers, free-standing multi-tenant retail, mixed and multi-use assets, vacant financial and restaurant buildings and adaptive reuse projects. The high respect she has earned among clients has made her a recognizable name in the greater Charlotte area.
- And with 34 years in the industry, Paris is the corporate controller, overseeing the company’s accounts, financial statements, liquidity management, budgets, forecasts, and variance reports. She was also named to last year’s GlobeSt. Best Bosses list.
This year, the Women of Influence will be recognized at an awards dinner in Lake Tahoe on July 23, 2024.
