Bio
Matthew Moy Johnson
Colleen and I worked together for several years and I think the most resounding recommendation I can give is that if I could, I would want to work with her again in a second. Colleen is an amazing talent and nonprofit professional, particularly when it come to taking complex ideas and simplifying them so that a broader group can clearly understand. She is exceptional at this skill in both written and visual representation of ideas and data. She is also extremely goal and detail oriented, and can manage multiple projects while maintaining her goal and detail focus. Coupled with these skills, she has fun and a sense of humor, and knows that's important when working hard.

Colleen is a caring, knowledgeable manager who knows the value of "raising up" the talent on her team. She offers a wealth of information and expertise, having served in a number of roles in the nonprofit sector. This makes her an excellent resource for advice and mentorship leading to professional growth. Colleen's unique ability to see an individual's strengths and adapt her management style to them made working with her a great experience.
