Bio
Krystal Augustine, MBA
When I think of Jessica, speak-up champion is the first thing that comes to mind. During the few years that Jessica reported to me she helped cultivate an inclusive culture, normalizing challenges to the status quo (including leadership assumptions) and offering out of the box ideas. I appreciated how motivated she was at making quality and process improvements and how often she volunteered to lead those same efforts. Her chemistry background was icing on the cake for our operations! Jessica accomplished all of this while maintaining an upbeat energy that really added to the dynamic of the team. Beginning the work day with a coffee chat with Jessica is a sure way to kick off your morning laughing, and we definitely miss her energy around here! I'm confident that Jessica will add a lot of color and insight to any team that welcomes her.
