From college hustle to community impact.
At 19, Scottie Smith II bought his first home and turned it into income by renting rooms to his classmates. Today, he’s a powerhouse in real estate — with nearly $500M in affordable housing projects under his belt and almost 200 units in development.

Scottie, CEO of Shekinah Legacy Holdings, has been featured on Forbes, Fox News, and Black Enterprise — but on Saturday, June 28th, he’ll be right here in Dallas at Gentlemen’s Toast: The Pursuit of Financial Happyness, sharing the game on building real estate empires with purpose.

This isn’t just another panel — it’s a power table.
