Bio
Anne Thurmann
I’ve worked with Laura for the past two years and it’s always been a pleasure to have such a hard-working and motivated person around. Even in stressful situations, Laura has always been able to manage arising tasks precisely due to her calm personality and her very structured way of working. I appreciate her loyal and professional nature towards colleagues and clients, and I am sure that Laura is an enrichment to any team.
Peter Sörries
I met Laura Neels during my time as an employee at the international architecture firm Househam Henderson GmbH (since 2018 Hyphen). As her direct assistant in accounting and administration, we worked closely together in Househam Henderson's Berlin office. For me, Laura Neels was a committed and open-minded colleague who supported me competently both during my induction period and during the rest of my activities. Due to her flexibility, she always took on tasks and challenges outside her actual field of activity as Executive Assistant. Accordingly, Laura Neels is able to structure her working day efficiently and to react appropriately and situation-related between clients, colleagues and superiors. Her cultural openness, which enabled her to communicate successfully on an international level, is particularly worth mentioning. I wish Laura Neels every success for her career and her future.
