Jackie Allen
Jeanette is by far one of the most competent, creative and congenial people I have ever had the pleasure to work with! As a March of Dimes Executive Director in Dayton, OH we had the opportunity to interact on many levels whether it was on-site training or by email and phone to brainstorm and benchmark off each other. She is truly a person I have always admired. Jeanette experienced market growth over her two year tenure and she doubled her board in only a six month period which is outstanding. As Jeanette looks for her next new profession home I encourage everyone to consider this incredibly talented lady whose skills can transfer to any management position and her kind heart makes her the perfect fit in any non-profit!
