Currently, she serves as President of Urban Pace, the leading condominium sales and marketing firm in Washington, DC (also serving urban Maryland and Virginia). Under Hackney’s leadership, Urban Pace has set a new standard for performance in its market sector through the use of state-of-the-art digital marketing techniques. Since Hackney founded Urban Pace in 2001, the company has orchestrated the disposition of more than $1.8 billion of real estate assets comprising more than 6,000 homes.

Capital Bank of Maryland is continuing to forge ahead as a leading private business bank known for providing integrated banking and lending solutions to small and medium sized businesses.
