About Joanna:
oanna N. Edwards, epitomizes the true definition of working for the people. Joanna has worked for the past 15 years in the human services field as an Advocate and has provided advocacy services to patients, victims of crime and community members. Having graduated with a BS in Criminal Justice in 2007 and completing her Master’s in Business Management in 2016, Joanna has expanded her interest of working for the people to the field of real-estate; where her compassion, relationship building and exceptional customer service from her past experiences are inextricably tied to her career in real-estate. Joanna’s interest in Real-Estate came from experience purchasing her first investment property along with working alongside her husband to establish one of the fastest growing real estate companies, Thumbprint Realty. Joanna’s interest in helping others didn’t stop there. In 2017, Joanna founded the philanthropic arm of Thumbprint Realty, Thumbprint Cares.
Thumbprint Cares is a 501c3 Non-profit, community based organization. Their goal is to educate, empower and build strong communities through workshops, partnerships and events. Joanna and the board of directors wanted to help families particularity of low wealth communities to combat economic inequality by becoming homeowners and closing the wealth gap to end generational poverty and learning ways to obtain generational wealth through homeownership and real-estate.
Thumbprint Cares has had its boots on the ground over the past 5 years hosting community giving events such as the Annual Back pack giveaway and annual Christmas toy giveaway. With Joanna’s leadership, Thumbprint Cares has proudly served over 2500 families in its 5 year tenure in the city of Boston. It is with great pleasure that Joanna continues to serve as an intricate member of the community as her current role of president of Thumbprint Cares Inc.
Today, Joanna considers herself a mompreneur who wears many hats as a wife, mother, investor, real estate agent and runs and operates several businesses including two Airbnb vacation rentals.
