“UrbanPlan is an opportunity to expose students at a young age to the diversity of career paths available to them
in real estate. It is an extremely rewarding experience to inspire young talent, at a time in many of their lives
when they are unsure of their future path, to join our industry and become future leaders in shaping our communities.”
- Alex Stone, Volunteer, ULI LA Young Leader
