Gomelsky, who joined Dinerstein in 2021 as chief accounting officer, succeeds David Glaser, who is retiring from the CFO role after seven years at the company.
In her new position, Gomelsky will oversee Dinerstein’s financial strategy, capital planning and treasury operations, supporting the company’s expansion, according to the release.
“Maria combines technical expertise with strategic vision, and I’m confident she will elevate TDC’s financial operations,” said John Caltagirone, president and partner of The Dinerstein Cos., in the release.
Gomelsky has led key financial initiatives at the company over the past several years, including reporting modernization and team development, according to the release. She has over 20 years of experience in finance, accounting and capital markets, and previously held senior finance roles at New York City-based insurance firm AIG and Houston-based Silver Star Properties REIT, formerly known as Hartman Income REIT, according to her LinkedIn profile.
“I’m honored to assume this role at such a pivotal time,” Gomelsky said in the release. “I’m committed to driving financial growth and fostering a values-driven culture that supports our people, our partners and our long-term vision.”
The Dinerstein Cos. has developed over 80,000 multifamily units and 50,000 student beds across the country, according to the release. It currently has over $1.65 billion in projects in development, and over $3.95 billion in LEED-certified projects either completed or underway.
