Nationally known as a downtown/commercial district revitalization expert, placemaker, community engagement professional, creative charrette manager, and economic development manager. In addition to consulting through my firm, Downtown Economics, I recently started a Community Development Corporation in Richmond, VA(Innovate Fulton, Inc) designed to revitalize a commercial corridor in the Fulton neighborhood of Richmond. I have consulted in 300 communities nationally and welcome new opportunities. I challenge convention and seek to bring creativity and innovation to my endeavors.
