ANN MIKIKO BOUSLOG | PHD
DIRECTOR OF LAND ECONOMICS & REAL ESTATE
Dr. Bouslog has over 30 years of experience in market assessment, economic and fiscal impact analysis, entitlement, and strategic
planning for large or complex developments throughout Hawai‘i and around the Pacific.
As Project Director at PBR HAWAII since 2015, Dr. Bouslog has led
multiple efforts to support affordable housing initiatives throughout the state, preparing market studies, economic and fiscal impact assessments, 201H applications, infrastructure and other development
impediment analyses, and support of rezoning or Interim Planned Development-Transit (IPD-T) permits on O ahu. Her practice areas also span infrastructure finance, market and economic aspects of TOD and regional initiatives on O‘ahu; business planning for community and conservation-oriented facilities; resort and visitor industry consultation. Recent and ongoing Hawai i island projects have addressed Office of Housing & Community Development’s Kamakoa
Nui Master Planned Community, Kamoleao Community Center, Kea‘au Town Center, Waimea Town, Waikoloa Beach Resort, and Mauna Kea Resort.
Prior to joining PBR HAWAII, Dr. Bouslog served as Forest City Hawaii’s development manager for the $770 million Kamakana Villages, a 2,200-home master planned community in partnership with
the State of Hawai‘i, Housing Finance and Development Corporation. At Forest City, she also supported entitlement initiatives for a 19-megawatt solar farm in Kunia, O‘ahu.
Prior professional ventures include founding and operating Mikiko Corporation, a real estate and economic advisory firm, and serving as Director of KPMG’s Hawai‘i Real Estate and Hospitality Consulting
practice. In these capacities, Dr. Bouslog directed services for prominent government, resort, and community developments such as the U.S. Navy (Ford Island and bulk dispositions), U.S. Army (Residential Communities Initiative), Department of Hawaiian Home Lands, Koa Ridge, Mauna Lani Resort, Waikoloa Beach Resort,
Ho‘opili, as well as projects in Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, Saipan, Guam, and Palau. In 2013-14, she helped organize a 10+ party mediation to address a proposed critical habitat designation in West Hawai‘i, resulting in beneficial agreements between area landowners
and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
Dr. Bouslog has acted as expert witness numerous times, before State and County agencies as well as in Circuit Court. In April 2016, her
testimony before the Hawai‘i State Land Use Commission regarding Koa Ridge was cited in the Hawai‘i Supreme Court decision that upheld the project’s LUC redistricting.
