Colleagues describe her as "Alyssa is a self-motivated partner who is consistent in her approach in finding ways to improve data, a process, or a system. She hits the ground running and brings with her a wealth of knowledge and experience to the team. Alyssa is always going above and beyond her call of duties. She is an invaluable asset to any organization!" and "I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Alyssa for 3 years at Minneapolis Public Housing Authority. In that time, seeing Alyssa bring in over 6 million in much-needed funding in grants and low- interest loans pushed me to think more strategically and bring in some small grants to the agency. If it was not for her leadership skills and devotion to the job, I would not be as eager as I am today getting these much-needed resources. Above all, I was impressed with Alyssa’s ability to juggle multiple projects, unlike anyone I’ve seen before. “Ridiculously efficient” is the phrase that comes to mind when I think about Alyssa. It’s rare that you come across standout talent like her. And, of course, her devotion and love of data is immeasurable. As a team member or a leader, Alyssa earns my highest heartfelt recommendation."
