Chief Development Officer

The global housing crisis affects over 1.6 billion people, and traditional approaches have failed to address the scale of this challenge. New Story exists to fundamentally transform how vulnerable families access housing - pioneering market-based solutions that empower underserved communities in Latin America to become land and homeowners in thriving communities, not just recipients of charity.

By combining innovative land development with accessible financing models, New Story reduces community development timelines from 10+ years to just 2 years, creating generational wealth and security for families who have been excluded from traditional housing markets. The organization has built over 3,380 homes impacting more than 15,000 people across four countries, with 60% of land titles going to women and a 100% portfolio repayment rate demonstrating the sustainability of their approach. As a Y Combinator graduate and four-time Fast Company "Most Innovative Company," New Story continues to push boundaries with innovations like 3D-printed homes and Bitcoin-based mortgage systems, proving that market forces can be harnessed to solve one of humanity's most critical challenges.
