Erin Clark

Chief Real Estate Investment Officer at Denver Housing Authority

Speaker

With over 15 years of experience in the real estate industry, I am a skilled and strategic leader who is passionate about creating long-term community benefits through innovative and sustainable development. As the Chief Real Estate Investment Officer at Denver Housing Authority, I oversee the policies, procedures, and investment decisions for the real estate division, which manages a portfolio of over 5,000 affordable housing units and several mixed-use projects. I am committed to advancing DHA's mission of providing quality, safe, and affordable housing for low- and moderate-income families and individuals, and to fostering partnerships with public, private, and nonprofit entities to enhance the livability and vibrancy of Denver's neighborhoods.

Prior to joining DHA, I was the Vice President of Master Site Development at Urban Land Conservancy, where I led the efforts to create long-term community benefits on large, multi-phased and multi-use sites throughout the Denver metro area, particularly in transit-oriented development areas. I was responsible for overseeing the planning, design, financing, and marketing of complex and high-impact projects that involved multiple stakeholders, regulatory agencies, and community groups. I also provided legal advice to individuals related to commercial and residential real estate matters as a contract associate at The Law Offices of Eric L. Nesbitt. In all of my roles, I have utilized my skills and knowledge in real estate, redevelopment, zoning, and urban land use development and policy to deliver successful outcomes that meet the needs and aspirations of the communities I serve.
