“Vanessa is an incredible leader, who established and led a very high-performing team while helping us grow both individually and collectively, a team responsible for innovation within the company and the success for our customers. The things that truly stand out about Vanessa are her bias toward action and the way she taught us to be strategic in choosing the right problems to solve at the right time. On top of being a great manager, she was also an advocate who had our back and drove a sense of accountability that up-leveled everyone around her.”
