Alice-Anne Harwood" and "I had the pleasure of first meeting Jessica during my tenure as Manager of Granting Programs at the Greater Hartford Arts Council. Jessica acted a grant reviewer for the organization on multiple occasions for a variety of grants. She was able to provide a balanced review of the applications that carefully considered community impact as well as taking into account important issues such as diversity, equity, inclusion, and sound design of programming. Jessica understands the importance of asking thoughtful questions and being able to make hard, but fair decisions. The holistic view she brings is reflective of the many causes she has supported and a clear understanding of grant funding, leadership, and the philanthropic sector. I value Jessica's understanding of how philanthropy creates the spaces and opportunities necessary to effect positive change in our work, our communities, and the world. Her passion gives her a clear insight in the ways creative projects act as catalysts for community action and change. "
