Bio
Vera Moore-Shaheen
Jennifer was charismatic, worked hard, and led by example. Our team followed her direction because she cultivated relationships with us and tangibly demonstrated value. Her ability to manage large, complex projects that required both strong management skills, and technical expertise in program and curricula design were impressive. Jennifer’s approach to the work was always very logical – she was thorough, organized, thoughtful, and smart. Urban League affiliates praised the workforce development and mentorship curricula that DWL developed under Jennifer’s leadership as it was culturally competent and sensitive to challenging issues faced by low to moderate income communities and communities of color. If given the opportunity, Jennifer is bound to bring the same level of energy, professionalism, optimism, and passion to your project.

Jennifer and the team at DWI was amazing to work with. They were and are one of our favorite clients. they know what they're doing, understand their demo and industry and approach their work with care and thoughtfulness. They treated us more like a partner than a vendor and those are the type of relationships we always want to build. Good people, great business, doing good in the world... what more can be said?
