Hello, I’m Emily! I’d like to take a bit of time to introduce myself — and hopefully make a convincing case for you to reach out to me and use me as a resource! I am exceptionally excited for this new role knowing I get to share and collaborate with you: our incredible members and partners.

I spent my first full-time week at CEDAM assisting with Real Estate Development Boot Camp at the Kettunen Center in Tustin. There is no better first week at a new job — I immediately had the opportunity to get to know 22 of our members and hear about the incredible projects you are already working on to make Michigan a more affordable, vibrant place to live for everyone.
My goal is to be an integral part of your relationship with CEDAM. I’ll be sending you a lot of information and updates, but I’d love hear from you too. I want to know:
- What you need from us! Whether it be through email or phone, coffee or lunch, I would love to know what you’d like to see from us regarding our communication, trainings and anything else you may want assistance with.
- What awesome things you’re working on! Brag to me. Shoot me a note about an awesome project you or your organization has started or completed, or a news feature that can be boosted. We want to make sure your important work is recognized.
I have been at CEDAM all but two months, and already I am inspired by the dedication you have in making Michigan an amazing place for ALL of its citizens. Thank you for all that you do. I look forward to working with you!
