"In her nine years at NAR, Gay has exhibited an unwavering commitment to our members–a NAR core value–and I look forward to seeing her continue to provide exceptional service to America's 1.4 million Realtors® as the commercial real estate sector bounces back from the COVID-19 pandemic."
In her current role, Cororaton manages the production of NAR's proprietary housing, commercial, and international statistics, surveys and research.
