President/CEO

Back To Team

Kent Schwendy wants to live in a world where everyone has choices, where the over half a million bees he keeps never sting, and where The Elements of Style are always utilized. 

As the President/CEO of CIL, a nonprofit real estate development company, Kent has over 30 years of experience providing his teammates the resources they need to succeed, while also tearing down obstacles that block the path to success. He is a recovering Professional Engineer, a LEED Accredited Professional, Congress for the New Urbanism Accredited, and a Certified Construction Specifier. 

Kent believes the key to success is finding, attracting, and keeping good team members. He provides an understanding of the strategic direction of CIL, so every teammate can make tactical decisions that move us forward.
