The Collingwood Group, a business advisory firm located in Washington, D.C., announced the promotion of Meg
Burns to Partner. She will join the firm’s management committee and will lead the Business Advisory practice. She will also be responsible for the firm’s long-term strategic development.

She has more than two decades of experience in the housing industry. Before joining The Collingwood Group as a Managing Director, Burns served as Senior Associate Director for Housing and Regulatory Policy at the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA). She also served as FHFA’s Senior Associate Director for Congressional Affairs and Communications. In addition, Burns has held key positions with the Federal Housing Administration and the Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Members of The Collingwood Group’s leadership team expressed their approval of Burns’ progression within the firm. “Meg is an incredible asset, and has become an indispensable member of the Collingwood leadership team,” said Brian O’Reilly, President and Co-founder of The Collingwood Group.

Brian Montgomery, Collingwood Group Vice Chairman, seconded O’Reilly’s sentiments with the following: “I am particularly pleased for Meg in her new position as Partner at the firm. Meg was one of my most trusted advisors when I was FHA Commissioner. She consistently provided me with keen insight and thoughtful opinions on a host of housing policy issues. Meg is well regarded throughout our industry and within government housing circles, and we are thrilled she will continue to promote Collingwood’s brand and expertise in her new role of Partner.”
