Joni is a positive and motivating force in everything she commits to in life and in work. I reported directly to Joni as part of her sales team, and she worked strategically with me, empowering me every step of the way, to achieve personal and professional growth while also bringing in wins for our larger organization. She is pure in her intentions toward achieving a greater good and working collaboratively with internal stakeholders to do so. I continue to look to Joni as a mentor and a friend and feel lucky to have had the opportunity to learn from her.

When the situation presents challenges, Joni is the person who creates a vision of the future and generates the path to make the future a reality. I had the pleasure of working with Joni for 2 years at the Global Alzheimer's Platform Foundation (GAP) and collaborated with her on several innovative programs. When clinical research sites shared the frustrations that their clinical trial participants encounter getting transportation to their trial appointments, Joni spearheaded a national transportation partnership with Lyft to support transportation services for participants in Alzheimer's disease trials. Joni actively sought the opportunity to raise awareness of clinical research and recognize research participants by establishing the GAP Citizen Scientist Award, the first-of-its-kind award to celebrate Alzheimer's disease trial participants. Not only does Joni thrive on turning problems into competitive advantages, she also sees the potential in others and sets them up for success. She set challenges and encouraged me; and she always had time to invest in my success by connecting me with the people and resources I needed both inside and outside the company. Joni is an inspiring leader and teammate; I would gladly work with Joni again in the future.
