Congratulations to our new Industry Advisory Board member and Virginia Tech alumni Anna Shaffer! Shaffer graduated from Virginia Polytechnic Institute with a Bachelors of Science in Finance with a concentration in Accounting.

Shaffer has had 15 years in the real estate industry under her belt. As an Assistant Director in Savills Studley’s Washington, DC office, Anna Shaffer focuses on managing the real estate needs of corporations, trade associations, and not-for-profit organizations in the Washington, DC area. She plays a valuable role providing market research, lease abstractions and managing the real estate needs of current and prospective clients. On the other hand, Shaffer is unique to the program because prior to working at Savills Studley in 2012, she spent eight years representing building landlords in the Northern Virginia and Washington, DC markets where she focused on building lease ups and financial reporting.

We are excited to continue to partner with Anna as she navigates the Washington, DC real estate industry. She has given valuable guidance to Virginia Tech real estate students, whether during networking trips in DC or during her visits to the Blacksburg campus.
