About Atisha Varshney
I am an expert in land use and community development, with over 14 years of interdisciplinary experience in architecture, urban planning, and real estate development. My recent work has focused on multi-family housing development, including affordable housing, mixed-use master plan communities, long-range planning, education institutions and faith communities. In the last five years, my work has contributed to developing over 500 housing units and other community programs, jobs, and essential amenities. As a seasoned development professional, I represent public agencies on TOD projects and private developers on a variety of project types. I have synergistically managed large teams involving government agencies and real estate developers, community stakeholders, investors, and legal professionals. I have successfully delivered project designs, entitlements, and RFPs, negotiated land transactions, including surplus land, executed pre-development loans and grants, and managed a large team of consultants. I take an agile and lean approach to project management, working collaboratively with my team and my partners to find high-value solution
