Executive Director
CurrentFor the past six years I have worked to achieve the vision of a vibrant waterfront community in the Capitol Riverfront – a high density, mixed-use neighborhood that is regional waterfront destination for Washington defined by its access to the river, parks and open spaces, residential opportunities, and retail support services. This 500-acre neighborhood just south of the U.S. Capitol complex builds upon its Navy Yard and maritime heritage while transforming over 60% of its land area through the construction of new office, residential, retail, hotel, and park uses. The Capitol Riverfront BID also partners with the DC Government, Federal agencies, and other nonprofit agencies in the clean-up of the Anacostia River, while providing a range of management services for the neighborhood. I believe that the Capitol Riverfront neighborhood is a once in a generation opportunity to build a new city within the city on the banks of the Anacostia River and become the new “front porch” for Washington, DC.
