Thomas Beard

I graduated from the University of South Carolina with a Bachelor of Arts in Economics.

In 2014, I joined Colliers | South Carolina as an intern, conducting research for quarterly market reports, special projects and case studies in the three major markets in South Carolina for two years before transitioning to brokerage. I find that my exposure to market data and establishing relationships with many of the professionals I continue to work with today, while working in the research department at Colliers, provides a valuable foundation into identifying market trends and creative deal making from the brokerage perspective.

I am a 2021 graduate of Leadership Columbia. I am a member of Christ School’s Alumni Council and serve on the Board of Directors for RED Atlas, a commercial real estate data and analytics company focused on serving emerging markets. 

While attending the University of South Carolina, I served on the planning committee for the annual Game Ball Run, which raises money for the Marcus Lattimore Foundation and Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Additionally, I was also involved with the Caribbean Youth Network, a program that provides shelter, food, sports facilities and equipment for youth on Long Island in the Bahamas.
