There are brokers who close deals quietly, and then there are those who do that and bring the entire industry along for the ride. Tina belongs to the second group, and the commercial real estate world has taken notice.

​CREi recently named Tina #15 on its list of Top LinkedIn Influencers in Commercial Real Estate, climbing from #22 last year, a recognition that places her among a select group of voices shaping how the industry thinks, connects, and grows on social media. But ask Tina how it happened, and her answer is straightforward.

​It started simply. As she puts it, she has always enjoyed writing and talking about the day-to-day reality of being a broker. LinkedIn became an outlet for that, and she had no idea it would lead to this level of recognition.

Authentic by Design

​What has built her following isn’t a grand content strategy or a personal brand playbook. It’s consistency and candor. Tina typically writes her posts early in the morning, before the workday begins, carving out quiet time before her ‘deal flow’ takes over her day. It’s a discipline that many agents aspire to but few sustain, and it’s a big part of why her presence has remained steady even through periods of heavy deal activity.

​Her impact has been more relational than transactional. Most of her followers are fellow brokers from around the world, a network that has opened conversations and deepened professional ties across markets. And while she’s candid that LinkedIn hasn’t yet driven a closed deal, she sees that as only part of the picture.

​Tina shared, “I also enjoy sharing my experiences, and if it helps someone newer in the business, that’s meaningful to me.”

​That mindset, sharing practical advice and in-the-moment industry perspective, is exactly what separates the voices people actually follow from the noise they scroll past.

What It Means for the Future

​Tina isn’t just reflecting on where LinkedIn has taken her; she’s watching where it’s taking the industry. Deals are already being born from connections made on the platform, and she believes that’s only the beginning. For commercial real estate, a business historically built on handshakes and local networks, LinkedIn is not so quietly expanding what’s possible. For agents looking to build their own presence, Tina’s advice is direct: be authentic, and post often. Not polished. Not perfect. Authentic.

​Tina’s recognition is a reminder that thought leadership in this industry doesn’t require a media team or a viral moment. It requires showing up, telling the truth about your work, and trusting that the right people are listening.

​Congratulations, Tina. We’re proud to have you representing our team at NAI Capital Commercial and our industry on a national stage.
