DALLAS – Cushman & Wakefield is pleased to announce that Bo Bond and Ali Greenwood have joined the firm as Executive Managing Director and Executive Director, respectively. They will be part of Cushman & Wakefield’s Global Data Center Advisory Group and be based in the firm’s Dallas office.
The pair are joining the firm from JLL, where Bond most recently served as Managing Director and co-leader of the company’s global Data Center Solutions practice, and Greenwood served as Senior Vice President.
Ran Holman, Managing Principal of Cushman & Wakefield Dallas, said, “We have incredible professionals in Dallas. How we improve is by focusing on exceptional people who happen to be client focused, team minded, talented and driven. Bo and Ali epitomize these traits. As a global service company, we have to continually improve and serve with excellence. The addition of Bo and Ali simply makes us better.”
Bond and Greenwood have established themselves as a premiere data center brokerage team. Collectively, they have completed assignments for many of the Fortune 500 across various industry verticals, as well as investors and data center operators alike.
“The data center market is becoming increasingly complex as it continues to grow at rapid scale,” said Dave Fanning, who leads Cushman & Wakefield’s Data Center Advisory Group. “The addition of Bo and Ali, with their dedicated focus to this market, further enables Cushman & Wakefield to keep pace with the market dynamics and better service our clients’ data center requirements.”
Bond has negotiated more than 30 million square feet (msf) of commercial real estate transactions in markets around the world. Bond has been recognized with a wide variety of industry awards, including Dallas Business Journal’s Heavy Hitters list and Best Deals awards, D CEO’s Power Brokers list and CoStar’s Power Brokers list. He also earned the Staubach/JLL Top Gun distinction nine years.
Bond earned a Bachelor of Business Administration in marketing/sales from the University of Mississippi.

Prior to her position at JLL, she worked with Digital Realty and Eastern Partners. She has been the recipient of several prestigious awards, including Dallas Business Journal’s Best Deals awards and D CEO’s Power Brokers list, and was a finalist for the Young Leader of the Year – Women in IT Awards.
Greenwood earned a Bachelor of Business Administration in real estate finance from Baylor University.
“This move will allow us to grow our data center platform on a global stage,” Bond said. “As rapidly as data center technology is evolving, the real estate that enables the industry is changing just as quickly. As part of Cushman & Wakefield, we’ll be able to stay ahead of this fast-changing industry and be well prepared for the future. We look forward to partnering with the remarkable professionals in the Data Center Advisory Group as well as the broader Cushman & Wakefield family.”
“We are honored to join the C&W platform, which is seeing explosive growth in the market and creating best-in-class teams across all disciplines,” Greenwood said. “The investment and focus by senior leadership in the data center advisory service group is exciting, and we look forward to getting to work on behalf of our clients to provide industry-leading data center services as part of an innovative and forward-thinking platform.”
