Richard K. Voelker has enjoyed a very diversified career taking the reins of a multi-franchised GM automobile dealership early in the 1980’s. Inner city challenges in the late 1990’s dictated that we redirect our attention to the real estate recognizing there was more value in redeveloping many city blocks into a mixed use. Today this masterplan encompasses hotels, multi-family apartments, retail, & office strategically positioned in Pittsburgh’s thriving medical community. This new direction produced other opportunities taking hold in private equity, energy consultation, & advisory positions with other companies. All of these experiences have woven into a unique perspective on how to define & execute process, manage risk, that has created value-based outcomes. To compliment this the joys associated with skiing, golf, & anything in the great outdoors is a constant pursuit.
