“Joy's obvious yet humble brilliance, combined with her mastery of thoughtful rigor in theory and analysis, makes her an invaluable instructor, advisor and mentor. While working with Joy during my MPA Capstone at Presidio Graduate School, her wealth of knowledge around the practice of innovation allowed me to push my thinking into territories I could not have imagined without her guidance and support. Joy's emphasis on reflective practice allowed for me to be grounded, both theoretically and practically, in the work that I was doing and how it mapped to the change I want to create in the world. More than any other mentor, Joy has helped me to discover my own unique power in the space, and continues to reflect back my own potential as an effective social change agent. Her impressive professional and academic accomplishments complement her sincere passion for helping changemakers bring their visions to life with a combination of pragmatism and propensity for practical implementation that may not otherwise have existed without her influence.”
