When I first arrived in downtown Austin, Texas, there were three residential buildings. For my 17+ years as an urban resident, I’ve had a front row seat to the explosive growth of one of America’s fastest growing cities. Through this time I've actively worked to introduce thoughtful approaches to shape our city’s future.
I am currently a strategy and brand advisor to RAINEY.CO, a boutique commercial real estate company that provides brokerage services and community-oriented development consultation to business owners, property owners and investors.
As Vice President of the DOWNTOWN AUSTIN NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION, I led the board in developing the organizational priorities and identity while growing membership by almost 10-fold through monthly community-building events.
I have also facilitated strategic planning for Austin’s top commercial real estate industry associations: AAFAME, CTCAR and CREW. And advised a few of Austin’s most treasured parks and nature organizations: THE TRAIL FOUNDATION, AUSTIN PARKS FOUNDATION and HILL COUNTRY CONSERVANCY.
