We are back with another episode in our "Creating Impact in Community" series! Today, I'm honored to be joined by a dear friend, Jonathan Allen.


Jonathan L. Allen, JD, MTS, is Co-founder and Director of Development at Leadership

Brainery, a Boston-based company closing wealth gaps by ensuring underrepresented

communities have equitable access to master's and doctoral degrees and workforce

leadership.

Jonathan’s experience building social impact ventures has earned him the inaugural

appointment as Innovator-in-Residence at Boston University. Jonathan is also known for

his commitment to public service, evidenced by his 2019 run for Boston City Council,

and his work with Partners in Health to stop the spread of COVID-19 throughout

Massachusetts—helping develop protocols and train teams for equitable data collection.

He’s a dynamic and highly sought after thought leader, and was recently named 40

Under 40 by The Boston Business Journal and one of Boston’s “Most Influential Men of

Color” by Get Konnected!. Jonathan graduated from Grambling State University,

Southern Methodist University, and Boston University School of Law. Learn more at
