VA08 Fact Sheet

I’m a contract CFO for multiple smaller CDFIs around the US who are supporting those in our communities that are starting small businesses, trying to get financing to buy a vehicle to get to a job or earn a living in the gig economy, and small developers bringing affordable housing onto the market. No one else is making this financing available. I work to see thriving communities here in the US that make our local economies vibrant and healthy. The CDFI Fund makes that possible.

CDFIs are an important part of the economic system and help deploy money to underserved communities, bringing needed resources such as affordable housing, health care, quality education, etc.
