Regnier Ben Bagas
I am grateful for the chance to have worked with Melissa as my manager who was my coach and mentor. I was part of her team for a few years helping me manage my team of technical support engineers. She has the ability to handle even the toughest team members to get them on board with team goals and made sure they leave with a smile. On team gatherings outside the office, she made sure everyone is having a great time. She will be a great asset to any company.
