One year ago Jamie walked in the doors of Rethreaded. I have watched her grow into a strong, compassionate, and servant-hearted woman who is living into the fullness of who she is created to be. She inspires us on a daily basis with her humility and wisdom. I am proud to call her my co-worker and fellow world changer. -Kristin Keen, founder and President
