“Take 5” – 5 Questions with Anna-Bo Emmanuel – North Miami CRA
FRA Board of Directors
Q: What is your best business advice for a new FRA member?
Anna-Bo: Immerse yourself in everything. Get to know as many people as possible and learn as much as you can. The FRA has so many resources for professionals in this space and there is always someone who you can bounce ideas off of and learn from. Although we represent our own individual communities, the FRA is that larger community that all belong to that helps us give our very best to the areas we serve.
Q. If you had a superpower, what would it be and why?
Anna-Bo: I would want the ability to bridge differences effectively. A lot more can be accomplished if we could agree on common goals and the ways to achieve them.
Q. We are going out for dinner/entertainment in your CRA District. Where are we going and why?
Anna-Bo: There are so many diverse options to pick from; it really depends on the mood of the day. You have your pick of Caribbean, Italian, Ecuadorian, Mexican, Indian, Fusion, and so much more. We also have wonderful options for live music and dancing. No matter what you do, you are sure to have a great time.
Q. What do you hope to be remembered for?
Anna-Bo: Professionally – making a positive and enduring impact in the community. Personally – Making those around me feel loved and cherished.
Q. What is the most exciting part of being in redevelopment?
Anna-Bo: The redevelopment world is exciting because it is ever-evolving; nothing stays the same. I also love that it has a tangible impact on the community that everyone can see.
