Career
TSCG says Popovics has more than 20 years of experience across tenant representation, landlord services, REIT operations, and private development. She joined the firm in 2021 as executive vice president and managing director of National Tenant Advisory Services. In May 2026, TSCG named her president, succeeding Sam Latone in that role; Latone remained co-CEO and co-chair alongside David Birnbrey. An ICSC interview describes the company's recent integration of tenant services, landlord services, data intelligence, and investment management. Popovics has also served on the ULI Retail Real Estate Product Council and co-chaired the 2025 ICSC Open Air Centers Conference.
Retail-Market Perspective
In a July 2026 ICSC interview, Popovics said TSCG's retail clients were expanding and landlord clients were executing leases and seeking to buy properties, while she cautioned that limited new development could constrain supply for the following two to three years. This is her stated market view at that time, not a universal forecast or a substitute for current leasing data. It illustrates how her operating role connects national tenant representation with retailer and landlord demand.
