About Wokie

For more than 30 years, Wokie Massaquoi-Wicks has committed her time, energy, and administrative expertise to a variety of community-focused social change organizations devoted to providing vital services for those in need.

In her previous career, Wokie held leadership positions in a variety of social change, housing, and community development/service institutions. In these capacities, she effectively built and led teams of professional staff, managed budgets, developed and implemented programs, oversaw board development, counseled, and directed and monitored organizational financial health. Her focus was to empower individuals and families who are socially, economically, and physically disadvantaged. While Wokie remains devoted to community service, she is excited about her career transition into real estate, where she can help people fulfill their dream of home ownership.
