Her flagship project, The Iris, is a mixed-use redevelopment in Lansing, Michigan that integrates affordable housing, workforce training, childcare services, and community gathering spaces within a historic redevelopment site. The project represents a multi-million-dollar investment in neighborhood revitalization and reflects her commitment to community-centered development and long-term economic impact.

Re’Shane’s entrepreneurial portfolio also includes The Comfort Zone Cigar Lounge & Bistro in East Lansing, Michigan, a hospitality venue she co-founded that combines premium cigar culture, dining, and curated community experiences.
