Why CPI? “Since I got to Notre Dame and joined the real estate institute, I've become more and more interested in real estate and the built environment. The ability to explore this interest while also serving my faith was an incredible opportunity I couldn't turn down. I now know how important real estate is to the Catholic church's longevity in our communities and love the work that I do!"
Career aspirations: “I'm looking to work in the real estate industry, whether it be in development, private equity, or urban planning."
Project snapshot: “I've been working on the Chicago Congregations Project. Through the project, we've tracked thousands of Chicago churches and the changes in their land usage since the early 2000s. We've discovered a ton of innovative adaptive reuse projects on the site of former church spaces and the data has been used on some presentations to conferences across the country!"
