“Jana is one of the most dedicated and hardworking employees we have. She is extremely organized and focused on learning and developing best practices to manage routine activities both efficiently and effectively. She consistently brings positive energy and an engaging personality that tackles the many activities that fill her role.” - Barrie Ferraro, Director of Business Development/Principal at Corderman & Company.

In the last 12 months what accomplishment are you most proud of? Being promoted to project manager. I’ve been delaying this promotion for a couple of years now, as my two boys were too small, and I felt like it wasn’t the right time for me. With the encouragement of my peers at Corderman, I finally took the leap in the beginning of this year.

How do you balance your rising career with your personal life? Juggling work-life balance is challenging. Having a career is important to me, but as a mother I feel guilty for not being with my boys 24/7. Fortunately, Corderman has been accommodating with my schedule and I’m able to always be there for my boys. My peers know that I will always do everything to get my work done. Having that relationship with your peers is fundamental to a balanced work and personal life.
