John Anderson

John Anderson is the founder of Ponderosa Economics.

He also helped restructure assets — including standing up a new brokerage team and operating systems — and supported asset management for a large hospitality portfolio, while contributing to underwriting across industrial, retail, hospitality, and multifamily deals. John graduated magna cum laude from William & Mary with a degree in Finance.
