During that time, Brian was instrumental in securing first-to-market retailers in Colorado, including H&M, Uniqlo and Kit & Ace. Brian managed efforts aimed at development of key residential amenities in Downtown Denver, including the establishment of Downtown's first elementary school and the first Downtown locations for Whole Foods and King Soopers.
Brian brings more than 15-years of experience in housing development advocacy and implementation, starting with his work at the Colorado Housing & Finance Authority (CHFA) as an Asset Management Officer in the early 2000's and extends through his time at the Downtown Denver Partnership, where he served on the City of Denver's 2008 and 2012 Mayoral Housing Task Forces.
Brian also served as a board member for the Golden Triangle Association from 2007-2016 during a critical time of the neighborhood's growth and development, which ultimately led to the creation of the Golden Triangle Partnership in 2016.
