Ade is creative and intuitive. She helped me with finding my voice and brand, using the most patient and supportive approach. A force to be reckoned with!

Glenda Smiley

I've had the pleasure of working with Adebukola for the past two years. When we first begin working togehter, as a superviser, I was immediately impressed with her creativity, work-ethic and team-player mindset. Adebukola also brings a wealth of interdisciplinary knowledge and expertise to the workplace. As a writer, producer and educator she's added value to the educational programming, communications and event planning teams. She is a self-starter and an innovative thinker. I highly recommend her services.

It is my pleasure to recconent Adebukola Ajao. I have worked with Adebukola in several capacities over the past four years: as a colleague/mentor at Emmanuel College, as a partner and co-founder of our social activist group We Are The Ones, and as her manager at the Lewis Family Foundation. Within these various roles, I have consistently been impressed by her ability to remain professional and diplomatic throughout formal and informal spaces. Much of the work that we do in the non-profit sector includes operating within traditional corporate norms as well as maintaining our professionalism in the non-traditional professional spaces as well. I have witnessed Adebukola navigate this dualism with grace especially in her ability to build partnerships with community leaders in various venues. Adebukola’s perseverance, commitment to her responsibilities, and ability to connect with any group of people make her an exceptional leader. As a mentor, I am privileged to have such a skilled mentee I would suggest that any organization should be honored to employ a young woman with her potential, skills, and value.
