Mr. Brewer began and spent the majority of his career at PricewaterhouseCoopers where he rose to partner with a client base focused on public and private real estate investment trusts, primarily in lodging.
“Bill brings tremendous
REIT experience given his current role at EdR and his involvement servicing
many of the hotel REITs throughout his career at PwC dating back to the 1990’s
when many of the initial lodging REITs became publicly traded.
"We are confident
that Bill’s financial expertise will contribute greatly to our board and
management team,” Fisher emphasized.
