Michelle Felman Appointed to the Board of Directors at Cumming

Cumming, an international real estate and construction consulting firm, has enjoyed exceptionally strong growth in recent years, with new marquee projects opening not only in New York but in major cities around the world, including Chicago, Los Angeles, London, Dubai, Shanghai and many others. At its current rate of growth, Cumming expects to double in size within five years to more than 1,100 team members with many joining the firm’s New York or international offices.

To help guide this rapid expansion, Cumming has appointed Michelle Felman, a seasoned industry leader and commercial real estate investment executive, to its board of directors. With extensive international experience and a strong track record of success working with developers and investors, Felman is a natural fit on the company’s board.

“Michelle’s unmatched business acumen, strong financial perspective and deep experience in global real estate will help drive Cumming toward our strategic goals,” said Finlay Cumming, the founder and CEO at Cumming.

Throughout her distinguished career, Felman has served in several executive and board member roles for some of the largest real estate and financial firms in the United States, including Vornado Realty Trust (VNO), LNR Property, GE Capital and Morgan Stanley (MS). Felman is also the founder of JAM Holdings, an investment and advisory firm, and is currently serving as a trustee for both The Partners Group, a global private equity firm, and Choice Properties, in addition to her senior adviser role with Turner Impact Capital.

When asked why she agreed to join Cumming’s board, Felman cited the company’s bright future and strong management. “Cumming’s vision is clear,” Felman said, “and its unrivaled growth over the years is a testament to its culture of producing extraordinary results for some of the most renowned developers, investors and end users across all asset classes of the global real estate market.”
