“Joanne is a dedicated professional. As a player in the National Football League, Joanne was vital to the involvement of players engaging in community events. Joanne structured and executed many community involvement activities between her surrounding community, players, and the San Francisco 49ers. She is dedicated and professional. Her attention to detail is unmatched by anyone in her field. I am truly thankful for her efforts while I was with the 49ers as a player and know that she made my workload a lot less stressful. She has an excellent personality and is always smiling. Her determination to complete any task is one of her strongest qualities. She is also dedicated to actively being a positive role model in the community. Loyalty and honor follow her wherever she goes. I’m proud to call her my friend and mentor.”
“Joanne is the ultimate professional who possesses an innate ability to successfully lead complex projects from early development to fruition. I witnessed this time and time again during my four years working with Joanne at the 49ers. Through her passion, creativity and tireless effort, Joanne developed one of the best community affairs programs in all of sports, which is no easy task. It takes a significant amount of initiative to reach new goals year after year, but that is how Joanne operates. She continually finds new ways to positively impact the lives of people. No task is ever too big or too small for Joanne and her team. Joanne possesses all of the necessary skills of a successful leader. Thus, it came as no surprise when she was named one of Silicon Valley's 40 Under 40 honorees nor when the teams she lead won the Global Beyond Sport Award, ESPN Humanitarian Team of the Year Award, Robert Wood Johnson Award and others, all honors they truly deserved.”
“We had over 800 applicants competing for the director of community relations role at the 49ers, but when Joanne walked in for the interview there was no question that she was the right person for the job. She took two major programs that were just plugging along and transformed them into a force of goodness for the community which also resulted in a warm reflection on the team. Her functional skills are a juggernaut of strategic thinking, compelling writing, attention to detail, and dogged determination to find a way around roadblocks. She has also been a strong supporter and mentor to her team. Joanne is awesome!”
“I had the great pleasure of working with Joanne for several years and was always impressed by her ability to engage staff, stakeholders, fans and donors to plan and implement memorable community outreach events. She has a keen ability to align business objectives with philanthropic efforts to help the team maximize its visibility, maintain its reputation and achieve its goals. She is a rare talent who not only gets the job done right, but cares deeply about the people whose lives she is impacting through her work.”
