“As Kaylan's direct manager, I have observed her transition from a software developer to a leadership role. She demonstrates a willingness and eagerness to learn, aligned with putting knowledge to practice, which is a valuable trait in any employee. She is passionate and brings high energy to her work, which is contagious and inspiring. Additionally, she always looks out for the best interests of her team and clients. While Kaylan has transitioned into a leadership role, she still maintains her technical skills by writing and reviewing code. This balance of technical expertise and leadership direction is extremely valuable to a team who's recently been augmented, and is still working its way to proficiency. I expect to see Kaylan advancing her managerial career, which seems to be an alignment between her potential and her desires.”
