What Clients and Colleagues Say

I've had the immense pleasure of working alongside Ken during our involvement with the Asian Real Estate Association of America, Portland Chapter. Without a doubt, Ken has proven himself to be a highly respected colleague and an exceptional friend to many within our organization. In 2022, during a critical period where the future of our association hung in the balance due to a lack of strong leadership, Ken selflessly stepped up to serve as interim President. His decision to take on this responsibility was not only commendable but also instrumental in ensuring the organization's stability. With steady dedication, Ken skillfully navigated through the challenges we faced, modeling a commitment to change and fostering a spirit of collaboration and honest dialogue. Under Ken's leadership, our organization has experienced a remarkable transformation. With an open and inclusive mindset, Ken has cultivated a culture that uplifts and embraces all members of our growing 150+ community. His unwavering support for those around him, driven by his strong social conscience, has created an environment built on trust, where every member's ideas are not only valued but also nurtured. Throughout his second term, Ken has harnessed his strengths to implement crucial systems and forge invaluable community partnerships that will ensure the long-term success of our organization. His thoughtful and strategic approach to problem-solving make him an invaluable asset to any project. It is with great confidence that I wholeheartedly recommend Ken to anyone seeking his professional expertise. His exceptional leadership, dedication, and genuine passion for fostering collaboration and inclusivity have made a lasting impact on our organization and those within it.

I have had the pleasure of working with Ken on several early stage affordable housing development projects. Ken is thorough, diligent and his project management skills give the team confidence that the job will stay on track. Ken has been an integral member of the team and often the glue that holds everything together. He is adept at project feasibility, zoning analysis and design, all while keeping an eye on both the day-to-day tasks and the long-term goals of the project. His broad experience has allowed him to quickly get up to speed on the nuances of affordable housing development, despite the complexity of the work. Ken is extremely detail-oriented and it’s clear that he cares deeply about the work he engages with.

Ken is professional, upbeat, and communicative. I found working with Ken to be a smooth experience. Ken takes time to get to know who you are as a person and the work of your organization. I highly recommend Ken to provide the services you need!
