Hopeworks' innovative model involves operating three businesses (web design/development, Salesforce implementations, and GIS) that provides both clients and Camden's youth with a win-win situation. My responsibility at Hopeworks was to manage and grow these three businesses. These businesses generate internship opportunities for Camden youth who earn an income while building professional skills like problem solving, communication, and client interaction. As Managing Director-Business Development, I grew these businesses 23% in one year and built a model to ensure their continued growth, resulting in our capacity to train and hire more paid interns.
