NAI Mertz has bolstered the sales team at its headquarters in Mount Laurel.
The commercial real estate firm this week announced the appointment of Nilgün Foley as sales associate. Raised in Istanbul, Turkey, Foley brings banking and international corporate experience to NAI Mertz, having worked overseas in Istanbul, Frankfurt and London.
“We are excited for Nilgün to join our team of professionals,” Barry Mertz, CEO of NAI Mertz, said in a prepared statement. “She has significant cross-cultural business experience and excellent business development skills, and we look forward to her assisting the firm in broadening our client base and market reach.”
Foley has held lending, relationship management and financial planning positions in global firms such as the Bank of Boston and Lafarge, S.A., Mertz said in a news release. She also served in finance and consultant positions in service sector businesses.
Foley acquired a real estate salesperson license in New Jersey and Pennsylvania in an effort to utilize and expand her knowledge of foreign investment in U.S. real estate and development markets, the news release said. She holds an economics degree from Skidmore College.
