Green Meets Good Building Wealth and Sustainability for All with Dr. Reginald Parker
In this episode of WAHNcast, host Ashley Northcutt sits down with Dr. Reginald Parker, President and Chairman of Friedman Green Bank & Trust, to explore how clean energy, finance, and community development can work together to build true equity.
Dr. Parker — an engineer, innovator, and visionary leader — shares how his journey from technology and consulting to community banking became a mission to “make it make sense” for those historically excluded from opportunity. From financing solar projects for churches and schools to redefining how creditworthiness is measured, Dr. Parker and his team are proving that sustainability and social justice are inseparable.
This conversation dives deep into:
The intersection of energy equity and economic empowerment
How community-led finance can build generational wealth
What it means to “win or learn” as a principle for leadership and innovation
Why women — and organizations like WAHN — are essential to shaping the next era of clean energy and affordable housing
Whether you’re in housing, development, or advocacy, this episode is a masterclass in purpose-driven progress.
