This next step with MJM presents an opportunity to multiply and profoundly deepen my impact in the world and for that I will be forever grateful. It is extremely important to be able to exhibit my core values in my daily work and to see first hand the impact I am making. I am confident this will be the case at MJM.” Jessie is passionate about the health and well-being of our communities and is excited to begin positively impacting the lives of our Heroes and their families.
