Culler will be based at Conrac Solutions’ corporate office in Renton, Was.

“We are looking forward to Jolene’s contributions to the company,” said Desiree Pfeffer, CEO of Conrac Solutions. “Her industry experience makes her an invaluable asset, allowing Conrac Solutions to bring our already strong service offerings to the next level.”

With more than three decades of working for the Port of Seattle in property management and leadership positions, Culler has a background in facility management, lease negotiation, and tenant/landlord account and relationship management.

During this time, she worked on projects with both the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport and rental companies. She also played a role in the process of negotiating concession and lease agreements regarding the migration of rental car companies from the SeaTac International Airport to the Seattle conrac facility.

“I am very excited to start a new challenge and work with the talented team at Conrac Solutions,” said Culler. “I look forward to further developing innovative approaches to Conrac Solutions’ DBE outreach program, ensuring optimal site-level operations and growing airport relationships.”
