"Jenifer has that rare trifecta of vision, synthesis, and implementation. She quickly sees goals and programmatic destinations, creatively pulls from multiple strategies and methodologies from within and outside of the arts to get there, and inspires others to join her. Jenifer gets things done and makes the work a pleasure along the way."
Carrie Cleveland, Manager of Education + Outreach, CERF+
"With so much going on in the world, it's critical to have a CREATIVE and tireless partner like Jenifer. I've been most impressed with her ability to think about "how" not "if" in moving strategy into reality. She has the unique ability to help uncover a powerful vision and then galvanize the energy needed to move toward it. If you want to be inspired to achieve what might seems impossible, Jenifer should be on your team."

Rick Pressler, Director, RPA Associates
Founder, Greater Brunswick Charter School
"Jenifer seamlessly stepped in to coach and guide several artists in their project and proposal development, helping them to track down funding sources and create grant-worthy proposals. Her project management skills - in addition to her mentoring - were essential helping artists (and their partner agencies) stay on task and on schedule. Having Jenifer's skill and capacity to "intuit" what was needed and move forward independently was essential.
