What Our Clients Say
Moky Makura
Yuniya joined ANF as a consultant when we launched the pilot of the Storify Africa Fellowship in 2022 following a grant from the Hewlett Foundation. She led and managed the fellowship from beginning to end, and we were pleased with the program’s outcome under her leadership. In addition to her program management skills, we were impressed by Yuniya’s strong leadership, mentoring and community-building skills, which helped to create a welcoming and collaborative environment for the Fellows. I can recommend Yuniya for any of your fellowship or other experiential program management needs!
Lindsay Kuhn
Yuniya possesses a unique talent for truly encapsulating the essence of an individual's humanity. Over the past two and a half years, I've had the privilege of having her as an integral part of our team as a journalist. Her storytelling skills are unparalleled, with a knack for weaving intricate details into every narrative, consistently achieving our objectives. Beyond her exceptional storytelling abilities, Yuniya is also everything you’d want in a colleague - she's dependable, compassionate, and has a delightful sense of humor.

Yuniya is incredible! I am grateful for the support she has provided the hiring managers at ICFJ since she came onboard as a recruitment consultant. She has helped us streamline our hiring process. What I appreciate the most about Yuniya is the fact that she likes to understand and envision the whole picture when approaching a task. We hired Yuniya to help us with recruiting and since then have asked her to help with our onboarding process and outplacement services amongst other adhoc tasks. She is always up for a challenge. It’s worked out well for ICFJ because she provides expertise when we need it and her work is thoughtful and thorough.
