Kimari Williams, MBA
Program Director
Kimari is very passionate about serving her native community and growing outwardly by supporting individuals and organizations that are mission-driven but are faced with socioeconomic, sex, age, and ethnic discrimination; as well as financial barriers that create adversity.
​
Throughout her entrepreneurial journey, she has been tasked with performing contractual projects where she has efficiently coordinated, planned, and implemented all functions and activities for developing small businesses. By helping business owners and entrepreneurs strategize, organize, and manage their business endeavors through a systemic process she has helped them build a relative core foundation for success.
​
Within a lead role, she currently works with the Women’s Social Entrepreneur Center in Oakland, CA as the Program Director for the Reentry and Beyond Liberation and Education Program (RE-ABLE). The program is designed to mentor and assist with developing small businesses for re-entering women of color. Being able to provide a safe haven for women to thrive has given Kimari a new level of purpose and she looks forward to increasing awareness for the center, its programs, and the women served.
