ABOUT DEVIN REYNOLDS
I am passionate about making neighborhoods vibrant places to live, work, play, and visit through business attraction and support, public space activation, and public arts. I believe in strong neighborhood commercial cores and their power to act as the lifeblood of a community.I studied community development, city planning and urban design in the University of Washington\'s Community, Environment & Planning program. After graduating, I focused on economic development, public arts management, event production and business attraction working for the City of Renton, Washington and then the Seattle neighborhood of Ballard, a thriving urban hub and Seattle\'s historic Scandinavian neighborhood. And now, I oversee the City of Portland, Oregon\'s Enhanced Services District (ESD) Program, where I manage multi-million dollar contracts and manage complex relationships between elected officials, City bureaus, and robust non-profits.
