Bio
With over 13 years of experience in both tenant and landlord representation, Melanie is known for her ability to generate innovative and creative solutions for all of her clients.
Her past experience working for corporations such as Macerich and Kennedy Wilson gave her in-depth insight into the landlord-tenant negotiation process and valuable experience on both sides of the deal making process.
During her tenure as a broker and landlord leasing representative in commercial real estate, Melanie realized there were many highly qualified independent retailers interested in expanding into innovative retail spaces and malls who were blindly signing deals without truly understanding the process or their options. Raised by a family of entrepreneurs and business owners, Melanie understood there was an opportunity to meet a need in the market and change the way new and emerging brands are represented in the industry.
Melanie left the corporate world to start Elevate Retail Group as a way to help emerging brands and independent retailers navigate the complex deal making process and be throughly represented through lease execution and beyond. Her number one priority is to ensure all her clients feel supported during what can often times be a difficult process and feel confident they are achieving the best possible deal- every single time.
