Sonja was my direct manager at Customer.io from October 2020 - February 2022 and was a wonderful manager and mentor. She is a leading example for what it means to lead a People function with empathy and a people-first mindset, while also moving quickly to get things done in a high growth company. She wore multiple hats while at Customer.io - managing People Ops, Recruiting, Finance, and Legal, and demonstrated bias towards action and trust daily with her team. Sonja embodies the type of leader every company needs more of and would be a great addition to any team.
