Had the privilege to be accepted into the Spark CDI Developer Academy in collaboration with the Center for Rural Affairs. Me and my new friends are looking to make a splash in affordable housing in our communities with the new knowledge, tools, connections and access to capital. My motivations are both personal and professional to become a developer for my real estate business and to impact my tribal community with Ho Chunk Community Capital (Native CDFI). Was a great week in Norfolk, Nebraska and I look forward to seeing the projects our cohort rolls out.
