Jeanne Bryan

Jeanne Bryan, Project Coordinator (and artist, musician, gypsy and extraordinary visionary), worked as Project Coordinator and Engineering Assistant at high profile companies such as Hewlett Packard, Cabletron Systems, Celestica New England and Data General Corporation before joining MLHA. Jeanne is responsible for running the place: working with clients to set up project designs and assessment projects, trouble-shooting on technical and operational issues, and keeping all systems running smoothly for MLHA clients and associates. Jeanne's high "DC" on the Personal Profile System, our behavioral profiling product, makes her a perfect match for ML's high "Di". While ML brings energy and ideas and constant excitement about new ways to serve clients better, Jeanne is equally strong with her systematic, analytical approach and succeeds in keeping the chaos to an acceptable level!
