Concordia University Irvine – Leadership for Organizational Change
“Receiving the CREW San Diego Building Futures Foundation Stipend in 2024 was both an honor and an investment in my continued growth as a leader in commercial real estate and higher education. The stipend helped support my doctoral studies and research focused on social capital, gender, and career success within the commercial real estate industry. One of the key outcomes of my research underscored the critical role mentorship, sponsorship, and professional relationships play in advancing careers and creating greater access to opportunity within CRE. This opportunity represents more than financial support. It reflects a community that believes in developing people, opening doors, and strengthening the future of the industry through continued education. I encourage prospective applicants to view this opportunity as an invitation to become more deeply engaged in a network of professionals committed to growth, service, and long-term impact in commercial real estate.”

USC Marshall School
“Receiving the Building Futures Foundation Scholarship from CREW San Diego was incredibly meaningful to me. As a working mother and real estate professional, pursuing my MBA at USC up in Los Angeles, later in my career, required a significant commitment of time, energy, and sacrifice. Not only from me, but from my entire family.
For the past two years, I have had the unique experience of studying alongside my children, often completing homework, projects, and studying for exams together around the kitchen table after a full day of school and work. The scholarship represented more than financial support; it was a vote of confidence from a community of women leaders who understand the challenges of balancing career, family, and personal growth.
CREW San Diego has been an important source of encouragement and business and personal networking throughout my professional journey, and this scholarship reinforced the value of lifelong learning and continuous development. I am deeply grateful for the support and proud to represent an organization that invests in the advancement of women at every stage of their careers, in an industry I am so passionate about.”
