Feedback received…

Anna was on my team for nearly two years and made such an impact on the business. She came into a strategic CRM role, and despite it being her first purely strategic (not operational) role she hit the ground running, and her operational background and expertise gave her a leg up in understanding the nuances of executing CRM campaigns technically. Her strengths are her organizational skills, ability to take feedback, and her thoughtful, measured approach to planning her work. She excelled in partnering cross-functionally with marketing operations, creative, and analytics. I’d love the opportunity to work together again.

In addition to being an expert in her field, Anna is an inspiring leader who always stays calm under pressure and keeps her team motivated and focused on delivering best results. Most importantly, Anna is kind, patient and empathetic. She is the person you’d be happy to see in a meeting or on a zoom call, no matter how stressful your work day is.
