“Working with Monica to reach the next level of growth for Bailey’s Cafe was truly a gift. Not only does she bring her deep understanding of the creative process, community building and organizational development but Monica also has a unique understanding of the needs, challenges and strengths of grassroots organizations working on social justice issues through an arts focus. She models the type of leadership necessary to reconcile the needs of the community with the infrastructural demands of maintaining a healthy, vibrant organization.” -Stefanie Siegal, Executive Director, Bailey’s Cafe, Brooklyn, NY
“A thoughtful and thought provoking perspective to ‘Saved’ and my artistic process. Our sessions were an anchor and I’m grateful for the focus and support that came from that.” -Kara Lynch, Artistic Visionary, ‘Saved’, Harlem, NY
Monica guided the development and curriculum of an innovative project focused on creating arts activities with children and families in the visitors lobby of the local jail in Louisville. She excels in every stage of project development: conceptualization, realization, identifying allies, coalition building, guiding new learning and problem solving. She is a great colleague and co-worker!” -Judi Jennings, Director Special Project, Louisville, KY
