About Rj Harvey

I’m a community‑minded real estate and development professional who has spent my career working at the intersection of neighborhood revitalization, strategic planning, and multi‑stakeholder project leadership. Whether I’m coordinating a complex redevelopment effort, building partnerships across city departments, or helping residents shape the future of their neighborhoods, I’m at my best when I’m bringing people, data, and strategy together to create meaningful impact.My background spans affordable housing, land development, construction operations, financial modeling, and long‑range planning, with experience in both community‑based organizations and private‑sector development. I’ve led projects from concept through construction, managed multi‑million‑dollar budgets, developed pro formas and KPIs, and built systems that make teams more coordinated and effective.Along the way, I’ve worked closely with architects, engineers, city planners, community coalitions, funders, and elected officials—always with a focus on transparency, collaboration, and equitable outcomes. I believe strong neighborhoods are built through shared vision and shared responsibility, and I bring that mindset into every project I lead.Today, I’m focused on roles that allow me to blend strategic initiatives, community development, and real estate expertise to strengthen cities and expand opportunity. I’m especially passionate about work that supports housing stability, revitalizes under‑invested areas, and aligns public and private partners around long‑term community goals.If you’re working on projects that move neighborhoods, projects and ideas forward—or looking to connect around housing, planning, construction, or community development—I’d love to talk.
