Colleagues describe her as "Working with Jackie was a pure pleasure. Whenever I had questions or concerns, she was always responsive and patient with me, clarifying the key points and setting clear expectations, which helped and motivated me to do the best job I could.
I have learned all the knowledge about project management from her. She was interested in helping me grow as an intern and taught me the necessary project management tools. She mapped out the project timeline clearly and delegated the work efficiently, making sure that every step in the project was monitored and executed as expected. She is a strategic planner with outstanding dedication, and our team’s projects were run successfully under her leadership and guidance.
I recommend Jackie highly as I know that she is a great supervisor that you can count on and learn from.", "Jacquelyn is an asset to the WE Connect program. I met her as a Mentor in the program and have been wowed about her commitment to the overall program. She has passion for the work and is serious about delivering results at the events. As well, I've been impressed with her entrepreneurial spirit that is willing to innovate and find new ways to solve challenges. I know that the female entrepreneurs of NYC who take advantage of the programs offerings will seriously benefit from Jacquelyn's vision.", and "Jacquelyn is one of the most compassionate and driven people I know. She stands by her convictions while working to serve others and encourage a just world. She and I served as Education Pioneer fellows together during the summer of 2015. Beyond her work at Achievement School District, where she focused on managing the district's annual Teacher Induction, she also brought an extensive knowledge-base and contagious enthusiasm to the Education Pioneer professional development sessions. Relevant to, but unrelated to our Education Pioneers fellowship, Jackie and I protested alongside one another in Ferguson, and I cherish our discussions before and after that emotional and impressionable time we spent witnessing and speaking out against inequality and injustice towards black communities in America. I know that Jackie will improve the world through her work - she has already made a large contribution, and this is only the beginning for the type of change she is destined to make. Her entire being is about social impact through passionate action. In word one: Inspiring."
