Anne Fadullon serves as the Founder and Principal Partner of MAKE Advisory Services, LLC (MAKE), where she provides consulting services focusing on capacity building and mentoring, with specialties in affordable housing and community development. Prior to founding MAKE, Anne served as the inaugural Deputy Mayor for the Department of Planning and Development (DPD) for the City of Philadelphia. In this position she was responsible for leading the Department in its efforts to align expertise and service delivery across a broad range of responsibilities to further the progression of the built environment and to ensure Philadelphia is a great place to invest, live, work and play. In this role, Anne was tasked with creating a new unified Department from six formerly separate and distinct agencies. In addition to these city entities, her purview also included solidifying the relationship with the Department’s sister agency, the Philadelphia Housing Development Corporation (PHDC), a 501(c)(3) tasked with implementing many of the City’s housing programs. During her tenure, Anne successfully merged PHDC, the Philadelphia Redevelopment Authority (PRA) and the Philadelphia Land Bank (PLB), resulting in all staff working for PHDC with management agreements with PRA and PLB. This consolidation ensured the ability to work across entities to ease service delivery to Philadelphia residents and businesses. To ensure coordination amongst the Divisions of DPD, PHDC and the public, Anne served as the Chair of the Philadelphia City Planning Commission, the Board of the Philadelphia Redevelopment Authority and the Board of the Philadelphia Land Bank. These consolidation and coordination efforts resulted in billions of dollars of both market and affordable development and securing affordable housing for tens of thousands of families.

Prior to her appointment as Deputy Mayor in January of 2016, Anne served as Director of Real Estate and Investment at the Dale Corporation. During her tenure at Dale, she oversaw several in-house development projects including Low Income Housing Tax Credit projects, mixed-income and mixed-use projects, and large-scale commercial projects. She also provided consulting services to third party developers, as well as supporting Dale’s General Contracting Division by serving as a liaison with government officials, agencies and other key stakeholders. Further, during her tenure at Dale, Anne served as the first ever female President of the Building Industry Association (BIA), which represents the City’s residential building industry. During her presidency the membership of the BIA grew exponentially and the organization became known for its willingness to roll up it sleeves and work side by side with agencies and government representatives to develop solutions to industry issues, rather than simply bringing a list of complaints.

Prior to joining Dale Corporation in April 2000, Anne served as the Director of Planning and Development for the City of Cocoa, Florida. This experience allowed Anne to become well-versed in how to deal with rapid growth in a diverse community. From 1992 to 1997, Anne worked at the then Office of Housing and Community Development and the Philadelphia Redevelopment Authority, cutting her teeth in the affordable housing and community development fields. This combination of public and private sector experience combined with both market-rate and affordable development success, gives Anne a well-rounded perspective on how to implement viable strategies for successful urban communities.

Anne has a Master’s in City Planning from the University of Pennsylvania and a Bachelor’s Degree in Economics and Urban Studies from Lehigh University. She lives in Germantown with her wife and can be found solving all the world’s problems by hiking long distances in the Wissahickon Park.
