Dan FauskeAt the close of the 28th legislative session, the Alaska Housing Finance Corporation received several new and renewed obligations that await the Governor's pen. Please join us for an opportunity to receive an update from Dan Fauske, CEO & Executive Director at AHFC on its direction for 2013 and the projects under AHFC's purview.

Dan began his job with the Corporation March 1, 1995. Mr. Fauske was instrumental in the development of an asset transfer plan between AHFC and the State, and as a result, substantially improved the Corporation's credit rating by Moody's and Standard and Poor's. AHFC has issued more than $6.0 billion in housing bonds and has contributed $1.9 billion back to the State of Alaska through cash transfers, capital projects, and debt service payments.

In 2010, Mr. Fauske was selected by the Alaska legislature to lead the Alaska Gasline Development Corporation (AGDC) for the specific purpose of developing, refining and producing an in-state natural gas pipeline project plan. The focus of the pipeline project is to supply gas to Southcentral Alaska by 2019 to offset the projected supply decline. The Alaska Stand Alone Gas Pipeline (ASAP) plan was released July 2011.

Mr. Fauske serves on numerous boards, including the National Community Renaissance/National CORE and the University of Alaska Anchorage (UAA) School of Nursing Advisory Board. He chairs the Alaska Council on Homelessness and has served on the Fiscal Policy Council of Alaska and Fannie Mae's National Housing Impact Advisory Council.

Prior to his career at AHFC, Mr. Fauske served as chief financial officer and chief administrative officer for Alaska's North Slope Borough. He holds a master's degree in business administration from Gonzaga University.
