Baltimore, MD, May 21, 2019 --The Greater Baltimore Urban League has selected and appointed Ms. Shymaine Davis as its new innovative Director of the Greater Baltimore Urban League’s Raymond V. Haysbert Center for Entrepreneurship. The Director is responsible for curating and conducting workshops, seminars, and individual counseling and mentoring for the development of entrepreneurs in Baltimore City.
Davis, a native Baltimorean, brings extensive experience in financial management and community development to this exciting role. For the past 15 years, Davis has committed her career and volunteer services to working with organizations to fulfill their mission. Some of Davis’ most distinguished projects were assisting with the building acquisition of Langston Hughes Business Community Resource Center serving the Park Heights community, as well as the opening of the Dr. Angela Y.

She works with a host of organizations in assisting with financial management, establishing systems/policies, and strategizing growth through microlending and small business loans, grants and contracts.
