Shannon is the broker in charge at Highland Real Estate Investors and is responsible for its overall growth and direction. She drives business through her extensive network of brokers, landlords, and tenants in the commercial industry. With more than 29 years of experience, she has mastered lease negotiations with national tenants as well as mom-and-pop startups and every business type in between. Her years as a CPA give her a unique advantage when it comes to understanding financials and analyzing properties to uncover cost savings, as well as pushing rents and recoveries from tenants based on lease terms. Her drive and desire to increase rents, operate with excellence, and optimize the tenant mix to fit the market and the property are unmatched by her competition. She is hands-on and detail-oriented, ensuring each client receives her expertise and attention in a way that larger firms cannot afford to provide.

Before founding the firm, Shannon worked for Kimco Realty (a publicly traded REIT) as a Director of Leasing with a portfolio of 4.3 million square feet. Her responsibilities included new tenant prospecting and lease negotiations, lease renewals, analyzing properties for repositioning through outparcel development, and assisting the acquisitions and dispositions teams through due diligence processes.

She is a member of the ICSC and the National Association of Realtors. Locally, she serves on the board of the Andrew P. Stewart Center and is a member of the Pike County Chamber of Commerce. Shannon enjoys fitness, hiking, gardening, and spending time with her husband and children.

Shannon earned a Bachelor of Business Administration in Accounting from the University of West Georgia.
