Sadie Maney has more than ten years of industry experience and will take responsibility for driving the firm’s client relationships and strategic growth across higher-education institutions in the northeast.

“Maney comes to DLR Group with a wide breadth of knowledge in the world of higher education,” said Stu Rothenberger, Senior Principal and Global Higher Education Leader. “She’s a proven leader in maintaining positive and professional relationships with clients, and we look forward to seeing our portfolio grow under Maney’s careful stewardship.”
