Jennifer has worked with both Westfield (URW) and Brookfield Properties (GGP) on their major malls in the area, and ranked in the top 10 deal markers year-after-year. Ms. Seversen also led the leasing efforts and original redevelopment of University Village in Seattle, completing over 50 deals in 5 years, including Crate & Barrel, Anthropolgie, and Pottery Barn.
A founding broker at Real Retail in Seattle, Ms. Seversen played a key role in the leasing and master planning efforts in South Lake Union for Vulcan Properties. She has been involved with ground-up developments and leasing of all property types throughout her career, including mixed use, big-box, and urban high-street retail.
