Featured Faces – Jessie
Meet Jessie! Jessie has worked at EchoingU of Northern Ohio for six months. She brings patience and compassion to her new role. Spending a few minutes with her and those she serves, it is easy to see the impact she has already had!

I am one of the Classroom Coordinators for EchoingU.
What Does Your Job Entail?
Ultimately, my role is to help the individuals I serve to become as independent as possible.
What Three Words Would Describe You?
Proactive, Resourceful, and Reliable.
What Are Your Hobbies and Interests?
I like antiquing, looking for vintage clothes, art, and furniture. I also enjoy reading news articles, meditating (I have introduced this to the class), and cuddling my cat, Alabama. That in itself is like a part-time job.

I find encouragement in looking for ways to be grateful. I like to keep gratitude lists.

Advocating for others is a talent of mine. I like to do what is best for others, no matter what. Also, I always remain calm, am diplomatic, and can easily relate to others.
How Do You Inspire Others?
I inspire others by being a good listener, staying positive, and helping others advocate for themselves.
What Is Your Favorite Thing About Echoing Hills?
It is 100% the people I serve. This role is a career change for me, and I am so glad I made it. They say you don’t work for places, but you work for people. I am so grateful for the people I serve!

Featured Faces is a way to get to know some of the individuals that make Echoing Hills so special! As we focus on those we serve and the team members that serve them, we will also focus on our 2022 theme – Encourage, Believe, Inspire.
We invite you to reflect on these three words and think: What can I do to encourage others? How do I believe my God-given talents can change the world? How can I let my words and actions inspire someone today? You may notice you are changing someone’s life, maybe even your own!
