Fan Mail Baldoni

Leslie is one of those rare people you read about in fairytales. She exudes positivity while also tackling every task with precision, thoughtfulness, and optimistic ferocity.

When we brought in Leslie to help us build a pop-up medical tent (in the middle of a crowded carnival that took place in the heart of Skid Row) our expectations were that if we could affect and help a few hundred people that it would be a success. A few months later Leslie had put together a team of over 120 medical professionals and built a pop-up hospital that in one day balmed the ailing hearts and feet of over 800 people. We are forever in debt to her fearless service and can’t wait to work with her again.

Fan Mail Johnson

Leslie Jordan has been a critical partner in my efforts to build five sustainable health centers at two different organizations over the last five years. In actuality, Ms. Jordan has been my secret weapon to build affordable, but stunningly welcoming environments for patients.

In my 20 years of experience in health care, there have been few reliable construction partners. Ms. Jordan is the exception with her brilliant resourcefulness to anticipate design challenges, meet budget and time parameters and deliver a project that always exceeded my expectations. I had never encountered such a reliable teammate and I slept very well knowing Leslie Jordan was on the job.

Fan Mail Altepeter

Leslie Jordan brings amazing insight along with creativity and design talent to her projects. She worked on the early stages of our building project and met with staff and stakeholders in determining the best use of space and furnishings for the new home of the Downtown Women’s Center.

Her design and project management skills helped us better understand the interior furnishings for our 6 story historical building in Skid Row. This project provides 71 efficiency units of affordable housing, along with several community spaces throughout, for homeless women in Los Angeles. She brought a special mix of compassion and excitement to this project. We are forever grateful to Leslie for sharing her talents with us.

– Joe Altepeter, Site Director, Downtown Women’s Center

Fan Mail Gluck

My associates and I have worked with Leslie Jordan for more than 15 years on projects ranging in size from hundreds of square feet to more than 20,000 sq ft. Leslie’s exceptionally good personal and professional qualities, together with her many years of experience, have enabled her to provide invaluable assistance for the owners, the project consultants and all of us at Gluck Building Company. Her governance of the entire venture results in facilities that are completed on time, within budget and to the highest standard of quality.

Most of the clinics that we have built with Leslie have been for well-known non-profit entities in underserved areas. Leslie has focused on such projects because she has a great heart and thrives upon helping those in need. Her hard work is truly a labor of love and compassion. Her representation and management will insure a most efficient journey and a stellar result.

Fan Mail Studio V

Studio V has had the honor of working with Leslie Jordan on several large office and medical projects over the years. Leslie was a calming, confident and expert force in managing complex projects; she was extremely skilled at leading our team while offering a variety of solutions every step of the way. She not only navigated the project team through site issues and end-user challenges, but was also instrumental in delivering a well-designed space on time and on budget.

I would highly recommend Leslie’s project management services and frankly, was amazed by how well-versed she was in space planning, and design sketches too. She raises the bar in her field, yet consistently over delivers!

Fan Mail Murray

Leslie Jordan represented Wesley Health Centers at our Weingart Center on Skid Row in Los Angeles, and worked with the Department of Health Services to construct a fifty-bed residency program, two medical exam rooms and nine behavioral health counseling rooms. She collaborated with our facilities, security and housekeeping teams, aligned these three agencies around the project’s desired outcomes, and determined any gaps or overlap in responsibility.

Leslie addressed changes and challenges with a problem-solving attitude and her open communication with our team was appreciated. The space improvements soundly reflect our mission to serve our most at ­risk homeless community members with dignity and in an environment that is uplifting and professional.

Leslie is one of the most impressive professionals I’ve had the good fortune to work with. She is incredibly hardworking and is an amazingly well rounded person. Leslie provides a substantial value to her employers given her broad background of experience.

Leslie’s management skills are stellar, she has a natural eye for good design, and she has an infectious positive attitude. I experienced first hand her ability to simultaneously manage multiple projects with challenging timeframes, effectively communicate and work with a broad range of personalities, develop and execute long term strategic plans, and deal with the pressure of tight project parameters and challenging construction sequencing.
