I managed Ana at PrestaShop, where she was a Product Designer in my department. She is someone who is really enjoyable to work with: always cheerful, positive, and someone I could count on every day. I knew that the tasks I assigned her would be followed through and completed.

Ana a une incroyable énergie qu’elle communique aisément en ateliers de travail. Elle a cette force de ne pas s’enfermer dans ses convictions personnelles mais de les partager, d’en défendre les rationnels, et, quand celà est nécessaire, de les adapter à des contraintes nouvelles. Elle a joué un rôle clé dans un projet de re-design fondamental de notre place de marché en apportant des concepts totalement nouveaux jusqu’alors.
