The Rev. Dr. Howard W. Whitaker

I have used Jamie as an itinerant program director for pop-up projects. Her social media and P2P marketing skills are incredible. She executes dependably. She has a deep stable of people she can bring in as needed. Most importantly, she adapts to quickly changing circumstances. I am comfortable with her representing my interests. She is a pleasure to have on my team.
