I hope 2025 is off to a fantastic start for each of you, both personally and professionally.

COLBA continues to be the premier commercial real estate organization in Chicago, proudly serving the community of office leasing brokers representing tenants and landlords since 1981.  I’m excited to step into the role of COLBA Board President and connect with each of you as participants in this longstanding organization. 

We have all weathered a very difficult few years and especially as an event-focused group serving our industry. The fact that our membership has remained stable, and our events were so well attended last year is a testament to our strength and the stalwart leadership of my predecessor, Dan Maslauski.

Where has the year gone? 2021 has passed quickly as we’ve continued to adapt to an ever-evolving way to live, work, and play in our forever changed world. But through it all, we have learned what is truly important in our lives. As we lean into 2022, we are hopeful and optimistic for a positive and healthy year.
