The housing crisis in California can seem insurmountable with median home prices costing the average family $800,000 and the homelessness rate constantly on the rise. The most rewarding aspect of my job as an Affordable Housing Executive & Financial Industry Leader is putting families in homes of their own.With a fierce passion for community development and affordable homeownership and other housing programs, I've led complex community projects and affordable housing programs within the financial services industry throughout my career. As a trusted financial advisor and relationship manager, I've overseen underwriting, risk management, and board & investor relations for large financial institutions. Whether working for a bank or mobilizing communities to produce profound good, I enjoy forging partnerships and coalitions with individuals, community partners, executives, and industry trailblazers to catalyze change, marshal resources, and move organizations toward the strategic vision to expand affordable housing across California. As a leader, I invest in my team by coaching, inspiring, and developing individuals to stretch capabilities to achieve performance goals through complex problem-solving, brainstorming, and collaboration. ______________________________Specialty areas include: Leadership & Management, Strategic Planning, Budgetary Oversight, Finance & Accounting, Revenue Generation, Operations Management, Organizational Development, Personnel Management, Talent Development, Corporate Culture, Client Acquisition & Retention, Capital Funds Management, Marketing & Sales Strategy, Process Improvement, Board Relations, Due Diligence, Project Management, Affordable Housing Programs, Nonprofit Leadership, Annual Membership Drives
