ABOUT

Bringing nearly 20 years of experience working in the education and racial justice fields, Jelena blends a unique skillset honed over the years in positions ranging from direct service youth work to workshop facilitation to leading communications for a statewide advocacy organization.
“
I started Provoke as a way to focus on what I love - helping people level up their work in creative, strategic ways. Whether trying to build an effective advocacy campaign or thinking through how to get your team to shift to a new mindset, you need “a - ha” moments. I’m all about using brain science on emotions, values, and on how we take in and act on new information to develop impactful experiences and ways of communicating. A-ha moments are what make something stand out to us, give us a new way to think about a problem or possibility, and help information stick in our brains so we take action. I thrive in developing ways to cultivate those moments for individuals and teams.
Provoke is also about shaking things up a bit. Being provocative leads to a reaction. Provoke Strategies is about helping you get the reactions that move your work forward.”
