It’s ! Meet our 2026 Single Course Scholar, Casey Russo (Amtrust Realty).

Originally from South Jersey, Casey joined AmTrust after moving to Chicago in search of a new career path. What began as a temporary role quickly grew into a career in commercial real estate, leading to her current position as a Construction Coordinator on AmTrust’s in-house construction team.

Casey recently started the Design, Operations, and Building Maintenance Systems course, which perfectly ties into her new role in construction. She looks forward to building connections throughout the industry and is excited to see where this opportunity will continue to take her.

The BOMA/Chicago Foundation welcomed Lt. Governor Juliana Stratton, Lieutenant Governor of Illinois and Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate, to its 14th Annual Diversity Celebration this year. During the event, Stratton met with board members and scholarship recipients to learn more about the Foundation’s impact on the commercial real estate industry.

She later addressed attendees from the podium, sharing remarks on the importance of continued commitment to building a more inclusive industry for future generations.
