Erica White, SVP of Technology & Strategic Initiatives at Article Student Living, Recognized By GlobeSt. as a 2025 Woman of Influence
CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The editors of GlobeSt. have selected Erica White, Senior Vice President of Technology & Strategic Initiatives at Article Student Living, as a 2025 Woman of Influence within the Diversity Champion category. The award recognizes professionals in the real estate industry who empower women in the field. Honorees include those who push diversity initiatives forward, introduce policies on an organizational or cultural level, or serve as leaders for internal diversity & inclusion programs. Erica White is a distinguished expert in real estate technology innovation. Recognized as a 2022 GlobeSt. Tech Influencer, she has played a pivotal role in revolutionizing the integration of technology, operations, and asset performance within student housing. Leading a team focused on internal reporting, IT, software, and property technologies, she is dedicated to optimizing operations, increasing NOI, and improving the resident experience. A recognized PropTech thought leader, Erica serves on industry boards like NMHC's Innovation and Emerging Tech Committee, Student Housing Insight: ShopTalk and NAA's Cultivate Advisory Board, advising on technology's role in operations, company culture, and business performance. In her role at Article, White works to elevate the next generation of women leaders through conference scholarships and mentoring opportunities, ensuring that rising stars have access to critical industry conversations and opportunities. Matt Maxa, Chief Operating Officer of Article Student Living had this to say about White: 'Erica is a true powerhouse - not only for Article, but across the industry. Her passion for championing women in the workplace is unmatched and she continues to be a catalyst for positive change. All of us at Article are beyond proud to call Erica one of our own, and I can't think of anyone more deserving of this recognition!' White's commitment to cultural change in commercial real estate is clear—her efforts have resulted in real, measurable progress toward a more equitable industry. By pushing diversity initiatives forward and providing a platform for women's voices, she is not just an advocate, but an architect of change. 'This award is a reflection of the values I hold closest. As a woman in tech and as a mother to bi-racial children, I've seen how important it is to create spaces where people feel seen, valued, and safe to show up as their full selves. That's not just good business: It's the foundation of leadership. ' I think about the people who made space for me, who opened doors, who invited me to sit at the table before I fully believed I belonged there, and I think about the responsibility we have to do the same for others,' says White. White is also a co-founder of the W. Collective – an influential networking and leadership forum designed to foster meaningful connections and create tangible change. The W. Collective is backed by executive advisors and board members representing the top 25 owner-operators in student housing. The initiative made waves at the Interface Student Housing Conference, where White and her colleagues called on the industry to rethink workplace policies that genuinely support all types of families. The response was swift—within weeks, companies across the sector began updating their policies to offer up to 12 weeks of paid parental leave, expanded bereavement support, and fertility care benefits, signaling a meaningful shift toward more inclusive and compassionate workplaces. White and the W. Collective continue to be champions for equity and inclusion through participation in industry conferences like NMHC's Student Housing Conference, where they hosted the Balancing Act: Addressing Childcare Challenges for Working Parents session as well as how Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion is shaping Business Performance. They have also increased visibility for women in capital markets and construction, areas where female representation remains disproportionately low.
