She is one of only nine commercial real estate professionals in Southern Nevada to hold both the SIOR (Society of Industrial and Office Realtors) and CCIM (Certified Commercial Investment Member) designations, the two most rigorous credentials in commercial brokerage.

Over twenty years in the Las Vegas market, Bridget has sold or leased more than $900 million in commercial property across the Las Vegas Valley including owner-user transactions, investment property, tenant and buyer representation, and condo-style commercial projects in office and light industrial. She is a specialist, not a generalist: her deepest expertise lies in owner-user advisory, medical office, light industrial, and commercial real estate marketing.

Bridget is recognized as one of the earliest adopters of artificial intelligence in commercial brokerage in Las Vegas. AI is integrated into how BRAND Real Estate handles market analysis, site selection, deal sourcing, and property marketing. Not as a marketing claim, but as a working part of every engagement. In 2026 alone, Bridget has been the sole facilitator on AI workshops for CREW Las Vegas, CCIM Southern Nevada, and SIOR Southern Nevada, with ongoing AI training delivered to SIOR chapters across the country.

She serves the commercial real estate community as President-Elect of the Southern Nevada SIOR Chapter (2026-2027 term) and as Chair of the SIOR Independent Broker Group (IBG) Steering Committee — IBG represents 1,400 of SIOR's 3,500 global designees.

She is also active in the Las Vegas commercial development deal flow both as an analyst for investors and capital partners evaluating development opportunities, and as a principal actively acquiring commercial development deals across the Las Vegas Valley.

Bridget began her commercial real estate career at Shea Commercial, a prominent developer of office projects in the Southwest United States. Before commercial real estate, she took 30+ companies public on the OTC:BB and helped launch multiple startups while working with a private investment firm in Las Vegas between 1997 and 2001; entrepreneurial background that shapes how she advises clients today.
