Girls Can Build

We'd love to give a big shout out to Moyra Paulina Martinez Romo and Deborah Sylva-Henslin, two of the participants in the inaugural cohort of our BuildHER Mentorship Program. Because of their connection, Paulina was offered an internship at Camber and True Collective which has been an extraordinary outcome for her personally and for our program. Paulina puts it very well..."From our very first meeting, Deb has guided me on a path toward success by helping me set clear goals and encouraging me to envision my future. Her leadership has not only shaped my growth but has also inspired me to become a better leader myself. Having a mentor who leads by example has been instrumental in pushing me toward continuous improvement, both personally and professionally." Well done, ladies!

Last Thursday, we officially launched the BuildHER Mentorship Program, and what an incredible kickoff it was! Surrounded by an amazing group of talented and driven women, we are more excited than ever to begin this journey of growth, learning, and empowerment in the commercial real estate community. This program wouldn't be possible without the incredible support of our sponsors who share our vision of building a stronger, more inclusive industry. A huge thank you to: - UpFront Planning & Entitlements, LLC - LX Hausys America - Evolve Ventures, LLC - Center of Building Innovation (CoBI) - Sharp Construction, LLC Another special thank you goes out to the leadership of Girls Can Build: Heather Personne, Marc J Neveu, and Tiffany Sharp.

Evolution of Community Please join Heather Personne from Evolve Ventures, LLC for an exciting event happening on: Thursday, May 9, 2024 3:30 PM??6:00 PM The ways in which members of a community interact are changing rapidly. Much of this communication now takes place online, making it increasingly difficult to anticipate and influence the conversation. As we all know, false speculation and NIMBYism can prove to be the death knell for projects, no matter how well intended the development team may be. Join us for an enlightening panel discussion where we will explore new strategies for engaging with members of the community, with a focus on building informed supporters to counter negativity and misinformation. All proceeds from this event will benefit Girls Can Build, an Arizona-based initiative powered by Sharp Construction, LLC with a mission to break down barriers to women in the industries of Construction, Design, Engineering, and Technology.?By spearheading and supporting projects, opportunities and mentorship in these industries, Girls Can Build aims to inspire young women to be Bold To Build!
