Annelise Schantz

Annelise’s work is framed by a commitment to provide support that allows clients to focus on their core work while still feeling engaged and confident in the complexities of real estate financing.

Over the last 12 years, Annelise has helped close over $420 million of Qualified School Construction Bonds, Qualified Zone Academy Bonds and New Markets Tax Credits and over $780 million of related debt, and refinancings, including project management support on tax exempt and taxable bond issuances for charter schools and non-profit organizations. In addition to guiding financings from early stages through closing and into post-closing reporting support, she has also provided early-stage analysis to clients seeking to understand project feasibility. Annelise began this work with Diane Flynn at Two9Three Consulting in 2012 and in 2016 formed Hudson Clinton Consulting. Prior to this work, Annelise was at the Robin Hood Foundation in the education portfolio, managing over $10 million in annual grants to charter schools, college access and technology-based academic supports as well as supporting the L!brary Project and other internal projects, all of which provided a deep understanding of the immense work that goes into running successful schools and non-profits.

Annelise holds a B.A. from Barnard College, Columbia University.
