Ms. McAlister’s portfolio of achievements includes the structuring, building, and management of industrial Class I rail-served business parks. Notably, she has developed two significant parks—a 137-acre and a 755-acre site. Within the RCR Taylor Park, she has adeptly negotiated and closed land transactions exceeding $69 million with end users.
