“I’ve been impressed by Joanne’s savvy business acumen and know-how in the venture stage of companies’ growth. She really knows her stuff when it comes to starting and growing a venture, developing business structures, and navigating nuances of high-tech.
​
Joanne lends a deft touch in understanding the needs and expectations of those taking risks – from the demands of startup founders/owners to the expectations of investors. Having worked with Joanne on a number of accounts, I’ve seen that she is also a natural “connector”, helping direct companies that she advises to the right teammates, service providers and investment opportunities. Lastly, Joanne is often the “glue” that a venture needs to build its business, especially when navigating through uncertain periods – keeping team members focused, with the right short- and long-term goals in mind.”

“I’ve had the privilege of knowing and working with Joanne for several years now. Without a doubt, Joanne is one of the most well-connected, energetic, and intelligent people I’ve ever known. She has an endless list of C-level contacts across the nation and around the globe, delivers on her commitments 100% of the time, and is constantly eager to leverage her extensive business experience and acumen in new ventures as well as learn new industries to identify opportunities.
​
Most of all, Joanne is a consummate professional with that rare combination of experience, skill and personality; she’s always willing to both learn as well as and teach from her years as an entrepreneur, executive, and leader. I consider myself very lucky to count her as both a friend and trusted business associate, and I wholeheartedly endorse her for any position that requires a knowledgable, experienced business leader.”
