Profile
Ms. Sheppard joined New Mexico Community Capital in 2005.
At NMCC, she performs an array of activities including deal sourcing, community outreach, providing value-added assistance to portfolio companies, managing portfolio company and deal flow information, assisting the Managing Director with investor relations and making investments for the NMCC funds.

She was raised on the Fort Berthold Reservation in North Dakota and is a member of the Three Affiliated Tribes.
