Jessica's Story
Jessica is an open book for all to see and was seeking a situation where her extremely valuable skills would be respected interpersonally.
Umbrella Alliance opened its arms to her in a role where her talents as a leader in thought and collaboration would be invaluable.
Jessica is challenging herself to feel authentic #ActuallyAutistic pride every day! Her goal is to build a culture of mutual support and growth together!
I don’t believe in mediocre…
I’m here for it if you are.
Jessica has a passion for process/workflow improvement, open direct communication and standardized, accurate data. Yes, she’s a delightful nerd. Some might say she obsesses over efficiency, in her personal and professional life. She is the person who asks, “Why do we do it that way? Couldn’t we improve by…?” Always coming up with concrete ideas for how to improve processes, she has a love of brainstorming with others to find optimal solutions and thrives on completing projects well, with a team or individually.
We acknowledge and pay respect to all historically marginalised communities, including First Nations Peoples, people with disabilities, and LGBTQIA+ individuals. We recognise the unique challenges and injustices that these communities have faced, and we commit ourselves to promoting diversity, liberation, and inclusion for all. We acknowledge the invaluable contributions that these communities have made and continue to make to our world, and we honour the rich cultural heritage and traditions that they bring. We stand in solidarity with historically marginalised communities and work towards creating a more just and equitable world for all.
