Bio
Sujit J.
Sasha (Aleksandar) is, simply put, the consummate professional. I would describe him as an extremely intelligent person, highly organized, very humble with a level-headed demeanor about him. His genuine passion for quality work is contagious, making Sasha that rare type of person that leads by inspiring others around him. I had the pleasure of working with Sasha while at Sensis on a couple of marketing projects for Boston College. Clients who are not in marketing typically need a lot of hand-holding, so I was amazed at how fast he grasped some of the more complex digital marketing concepts. His candid direction allowed us to efficiently put together accurate media plans that were on-strategy. I can confidently say that his ability to grasp situations quickly and provide timely direction was a key reason why our campaigns were executed so smoothly. In summary his excellent project management, communication and leadership skills allowed me and my team to deliver some incredible work. I can confidently say that Sasha would, without a doubt, be an asset to any organization. It was great experience working with him and I sincerely hope our paths will cross again soon.
