BALTIMORE, MD (April 20, 2026) - Haley Gallagher, Chief Operating Officer of Continental Realty Corporation (CRC), a privately-held real estate investment and management company with nearly $4.5 billion in Assets Under Management (AUM), has been recognized as a 2026 Woman of Influence by GlobeSt., an online news publication providing information and insights on the commercial real estate industry. The 16-year commercial real estate veteran was honored in the Investment Professional/Owner category.

The annual awards program, now in its seventh year, honors women real estate professionals who drive the commercial real estate industry forward. Winners are selected by GlobeSt.'s advisory board and senior editors based upon candidates' efforts to empower women in the field, how they achieve goals and display ingenuity, and how impactful their work has been in their respective organizations and related stakeholders.

Gallagher joined CRC in 2012, was elevated to COO in 2025, serves as a member of the company's Investment and Executive committees and plays a key role in shaping the company's architecture and driving firm-wide strategy. She has direct oversight of CRC's multifamily and retail operations, asset management, capital markets, business analytics, and risk management functions. In this role, she oversees portfolio performance, guides financial planning, and ensures alignment between operational execution and investor expectations.

Gallagher built CRC's asset management platform from the ground up and has led the expansion of several core functions including advancing the company's data science capabilities, strengthening insurance and risk programs, and evolving capital markets strategy through new tools and talent. She earned a Bachelor of Commerce in Finance from Santa Clara University and a Masters in Real Estate Development from The Johns Hopkins University.

Beyond the firm, Haley is an active contributor to the commercial real estate industry. She participates in leading organizations including NMHC, ICSC, NAREIM, and co-chairs an annual Women's Real Estate Summit, engaging with peers on emerging trends and best practices that continue to shape our industry. Her involvement not only supports broader industry advancement, but also brings valuable perspective back to CRC, reinforcing the firm's commitment to innovation and operational excellence.
