Priscilla Negreanu is Invalesco’s Developer & Project Liaison. In this role, she is often the first point of contact for our builder and developer clients. She is a business connector, CU Denver Alumna, and former advertising sales executive.

Priscilla started her career in the advertising industry working with Fortune 500 companies, including Tribune Media and Comcast Spotlight, where she sold and managed multi-million-dollar advertising solutions across multiple platforms including broadcast, cable, digital, and strategic partnerships to both local and national businesses.

Priscilla got her feet wet in the real estate industry, as an advertising sales executive, when she noticed a challenge for commercial real estate developers to promote their initiatives and developments to Colorado communities.

Since leaving the advertising industry, Priscilla focuses on building profitable business relationships with companies in the construction and homebuilding industry.
