“This is personal. I built JobeLeigh Enterprises LLC because I have spent my career inside the systems that are supposed to serve people…”
Dr. Njareh Jobe · Founder & CEOHer Story
Dr. Jobe’s path runs from a women’s health clinic in The Gambia, through graduate study in Colorado, to the front lines of U.S. federal disaster finance — and, in 2022, to founding JobeLeigh Enterprises.
This is personal.
I built JobeLeigh Enterprises LLC because I have spent my career inside the systems that are supposed to serve people — disaster finance at FEMA, grants management in higher education, Global Fund work with women in The Gambia — and I know how much better they can work when the money is managed well, the governance is strong, and the decisions are driven by data.
JobeLeigh is how I bring that work to more organizations: helping public institutions strengthen their financial stewardship, use their resources wisely, and deliver for the communities counting on them.
This is the work I was meant to do. And I’m just getting started.

The Books
The same voice that advises institutions writes for individuals — on becoming who you were meant to be, and on the decisions that get you there. A GPS for the soul when life feels like chaos.
For the woman who knows she was made for more.
Drawing on a journey that carried her from The Gambia to the highest levels of U.S. public service, Dr. Jobe writes to women standing at the edge of their next chapter — on identity, faith, resilience, and the quiet work of growing into the woman you were always meant to become.
