I had the pleasure of working with BJ when she was the Director of Operations at Chicago Youth Programs. BJ is a high-energy, get-it-done kind of person. She is incredibly positive and fun to work with. She knows her stuff and is eager to improve processes to be most efficient and effective.BJ is someone you want on your team.

Over a three year period, I worked as a contract IT coordinator at Chicago Youth Programs with my work managed by BJ. Later, I was called in by her to provide services for the Epliepsy Fondation of Greater Chicago. B.J. runs very smooth operations, balancing the short term needs with the longer term vision and mission. Her sense of mission is powerful. That she puts her administrative skills to work in service of the organization's mission is evident in the choices she makes. I observed that program staff felt supported by her administrative priorities. They knew that she was making choices in support of their having the resources to accomplish the organization's mission. It was always a pleasure to deal with BJ on a project, because it was clear that she had thought through how to make it happen and how it would benefit the organization's mission. BJ sees the larger financial picture of the organization and administers from within that perspective. She is smart and fast and thoroughly enjoyable to work with– one of those people that I would follow anywhere! Charlie Havens Wooded Isle Computer Consultants 5750 S.
