Josh Bogaski-Baugh
I had the privilege of working with Jah while at Saint Xavier University. Although we did not work in the same functional area, we had the opportunity to work together on various projects and committees. His dedication to our students and their development was unparalleled and we could always rely on his innovative ideas to strengthen services and programs at the University. His collaborative spirit makes him a great addition to any team and future organizations will be lucky to have him!

I worked with Jaraed when he was a Peer Advocate in the Urban Male Initiative at John Jay College. As a mentor, Jaraed was known for his outgoing personality and friendly demeanor. Being around Jaraed was always a pleasant experience and his positive energy immediately influenced other as he walked into a room. He has a can-do attitude and is always willing to go above and beyond to help those in need. He serves as a great mentor and a valuable asset to any team.
