In this episode of The SAHMA Exchange, we sit down with Dennis McWilliams, immediate past president of SAHMA and a Regional Property Manager with The Michaels Organization, for a candid conversation about his journey in affordable housing. Dennis shares how he found his way into the industry almost by accident, the resident experiences that shaped his leadership style, and why affordable housing has become a career, and a calling, for him. We also talk about his love of travel, the lessons it’s taught him about people and community, and how those experiences inform his work today. The conversation closes with a look at the future of affordable housing and why workforce development, education, and professional growth remain critical priorities for SAHMA members and the industry as a whole.
