Dhakiyya Lewis

Industry Partnerships Manager

Dhakiyya has worked serving the community since 2006 and in youth workforce development since 2010. That work afforded her the opportunity to assist communities in Georgia in strengthening their footprint on the path of workforce development. Along her journey, Dhakiyya obtained a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Alabama State University and a Masters of Community Counseling from Argosy University; it’s easy to see that she truly works to understand people and their needs. This understanding supports the work of CareerRise as they continue to serve the specific needs of employers and strengthen the economic mobility of Georgia’s communities.
