THE LEADERSHIP
Akinya Khalfani, M.U.P.
Founder & CEO
As Founder of the firm, Khalfani has acquired extensive education and experience in the field of urban planning and design. A
graduate of the University of Michigan (B.A.) and Wayne State University (M.U.P.), Khalfani was certified in Retail Planning for Cities,
Villages and Townships at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts. His experiences include years of working in the
areas of community & economic development, transportation planning, housing development and recreation planning while

architectural firms prior to founding Central Place Planning Professionals, LLC. In addition, Khalfani is a member of the Urban Land

once rural greenspaces into contemporary housing developments. Currently, the firm is experiencing its greatest growth in the
area of urban development consultation in the Eastern and Southern Regions of the United States. This has been primarily due to
the experiences acquired through working in the older industrial Midwest and overcoming the obstacles attributed to developing
in that environment.

social engineers to assure firm’s success. Khalfani has under his direction a host of urban planning professionals, urban
designers, GIS Specialists, architects, student interns and others contributing to the firm’s success.
