With nearly 20 years of experience, she is passionate about helping teams and leaders deepen their impact at the nexus of storytelling and social change.

Jordan earned a Bachelor’s in Sociology and Women’s Studies from Wellesley College, a Master’s in Strategic Communications from Columbia University, and an Executive Certificate in Facilitation from Georgetown University’s Institute for Transformational Leadership.
