OMAHA (April 14, 2026) – NAI NP Dodge today announced the appointment of Kristi Andersen as president, effective April 20, 2026. NAI NP Dodge is the commercial brokerage division of NP Dodge, Omaha’s largest full-service real estate company.

Andersen brings a diverse background to NAI NP Dodge, having served as a top-producing commercial real estate agent, communications consultant and active community leader. She succeeds Deb Graeve-Morrison, who is retiring after 16 years with NP Dodge.

Prior to joining NAI NP Dodge, Andersen served as a vice president at both CBRE and Colliers in Omaha. She focuses on leasing and selling office, industrial and retail properties for landlords and tenants. She has represented a wide variety of clients, from small business owners to Fortune 500 companies, and has led millions of dollars in successful real estate transactions. She has also been named a CoStar Power Broker.

She will continue to actively represent commercial real estate clients in her role as president. In this role, Andersen will focus on driving growth, strengthening client relationships and advancing NAI NP Dodge’s market leadership.

“We are excited to welcome Kristi to NP Dodge and confident in the leadership she will bring to NAI NP Dodge,” said Nate Dodge, Chairperson and CEO of NP Dodge. “Her track record, relationships and strategic perspective position her exceptionally well to lead this next chapter of growth. We look forward to the impact she will make for our clients, our people and our community.”

Beyond her work in commercial real estate, Andersen has 25 years of experience in public relations and currently runs a consultancy, Kristi Andersen Communications. Previously, she served as director of communications for the Metropolitan Entertainment & Convention Authority and as Nebraska press secretary for U.S. Senator Mike Johanns.

She began her career as a broadcast journalist for television news teams across the Midwest, covering major national events including hurricanes and presidential elections. Many Omahans will remember her as an anchor and reporter for KETV from 2007 to 2011. She got her start in broadcasting as a student at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln.

As a volunteer, Andersen has served on numerous boards and committees, including DREAM, Girl Scouts, UNMC Board of Counselors, Ronald McDonald House Charities, B&B Sports Academy, Commercial Real Estate Women, the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and the Downtown Improvement District.

She also hosts a podcast, The Suite Life, in partnership with the Business Ethics Alliance.

“I am incredibly honored to step into this role and join the talented team at NAI NP Dodge,” said Andersen. “This company has a strong reputation for excellence and client-focused results, and I look forward to working alongside this team to build on our momentum and create even greater opportunities for our clients and our community.”
