Jessica Ward-Ramirez

Community impact driven professional with 9+ years of cross-sector experience in project management, stakeholder engagement, and user friendly solutions.

I’m passionate about using my experience in project management and managing budgets to influence the health outcomes of disadvantaged populations through health education, finance, research and other multifaceted approaches in Los Angeles. I am experienced in LA-centered intersections of public health, budget and finance, government and research. I drive organizations to solve our community-based health problems managing against deadlines, working cross-functionally with community members, community leaders, executives and elected officials to deliver impactful projects and programs. I am particularly interested in creating economically accessible and culturally competent ways of understanding the roots and accessible ways of working with economic mobility, trauma, obesity, dementia and diabetes in our communities.
