In this episode of The Closing Table, Javier Alomia and Jeff Naylor sit down with Dana Fuller Shephard, the Executive Director of the Portland Housing Center—an organization that guided her first‑time homebuying journey at age 23 and now thrives under her leadership. Together, we explore how PHC makes homeownership attainable through downpayment assistance, financial literacy workshops, and culturally tailored initiatives like “Getting Your House in Order.” Dana speaks openly about the mental hurdles that intimidate would‑be buyers, the long shadows cast by the 2008 housing crisis, and PHC’s unwavering commitment to serving every community across Oregon. Dana reflects on her life before housing advocacy—her years as a professional dancer and that iconic ’90s basketball showdown between Benson and Jefferson. She cheered as a varsity cheerleader while Jeff anchored Benson’s backcourt as the starting guard, sparking a fun, friendly rivalry. These stories underscore how community, identity, and equity shape the path to homeownership. Whether you’re embarking on your first purchase, working in real estate, or fighting for housing justice, Dana’s personal insights and PHC’s innovative approach make this a must‑hear conversation.
