Changemaker
I am dedicated to making the world a better place through everything I do. Whether it's volunteering as a coach to help youth in my community, facilitating workshops that empower women and nonprofit professionals, leading DEIJAB efforts, serving on Boards, or leading and participating in book clubs, being a change agent is in my DNA.
"Shaké, as Senior Advisor and Executive Search Consultant at Boyden did an incredible job helping our Foundation find qualified candidates for three leadership positions including Director of Prospect Research, Director of Annual Giving, and Director of Foundation Operations. Shaké listened and understood what we expected in ideal candidates and performed her work expeditiously, seamlessly, and with tremendous success. I highly, and without reservation, recommend Shaké to other organizations looking to recruit talent for their vacancies”
Healthcare Foundation Leader
"Shaké's skills as a group facilitator are outstanding. She recently worked with a diverse group of executive directors I was a part of for six months. She set a great tone right from the start. She knows how to keep a group focused on what matters. She skillfully engages everyone throughout a well-conceived process and draws out meaningful content gently and effectively. She is kind, funny, and smart. I'd trust her to know what to do with any group."
Nonprofit Executive Director
"Shaké was a parent volunteer at our elementary school, holding several roles. She came in once a month to teach STEAM lessons in my Kindergarten classroom. She was knowledgeable, dependable, and works well with children. She would develop hands-on activities based on the science themes we were working on each month, and my students always looked forward to her coming. In addition, she organized our school’s biggest fundraiser and created fun incentives to encourage the students and their families to get involved. She also communicates well with students’ families and staff members. She is easy to approach and would be a positive addition. "
