Diggs succeeds Henry Hagood. Hagood resigned on Aug. 24 shortly after a series of broadcast reports questioned his conduct in relation to the sale of several parcels of land in the city. At Detroit Renaissance, Diggs, 41, created the Detroit Community Loan Fund, which lends to small, minority-owned businesses in the city. He also worked with the Michigan Statewide Minority Business Center.
Before joining Detroit Renaissance, Diggs was a small-business consultant at the Detroit Entrepreneurship Institute Inc. and worked at Vasileff Realty Inc. and Swanson Funeral Home Inc., both in Detroit. Diggs, a graduate of Wayne State University with an MBA from Davenport University, is a member of the Detroit Board of Realtors and the Detroit Leadership Council.
