Q&A with Ajashu Thomas

Meet the team at the Greater Washington Partnership!

Meet Ajashu Thomas, Communications Manager at the Partnership. Ajashu oversees all of the Partnership's external communications and media engagement.

Q: When did you join the Partnership and what initially encouraged you to join the team?

 

I joined the Partnership in June 2022. I was initially encouraged to join the team because I believe that no one sector has the all answers to the challenges facing our region. The private, social, public, and nonprofit sector must work together to find and implement solutions to ensure all businesses and residents can thrive.

 

Q: What motivates you to jump out of bed and get to work each morning?

 

To make a positive difference.

 

Q: In what ways do you think you can continue to grow as a professional at the Partnership? On the flipside, how do you want to help the Partnership grow?

 

I’ve worked on both the federal and local level, but I am excited for the opportunity to work regionally and help raise awareness about the the Partnership’s work from Baltimore to Richmond.

 

Q: If you could snap your fingers and solve any issue or hurdle you’ve encountered in the Capital Region, what would it be and why?

 

I would solve our traffic issues. We spend too much time traveling from place to place especially during rush hour.

 

Q: What is your favorite activity / place around the Capital Region?

 

Trying new restaurants and checking out new exhibits.
