Bio
Grzegorz Bielanski
I had the pleasure of working closely with Ana for the past year at Glovo, where we collaborated on several projects. Ana is an exceptional iOS developer who consistently delivers top-notch results. She has a knack for ensuring that projects are not only completed on time but also to the highest standards of quality. Ana's analytical and detail-oriented mindset is truly commendable. She approaches each task with a keen eye for detail, making sure that every aspect of the software is thoroughly examined and refined. Her dedication to creating high-quality software is second to none. Beyond her technical skills, Ana brings a positive and collaborative atmosphere to the team. Her friendly and approachable nature makes her a pleasure to work with, and she is always willing to lend a helping hand to her colleagues. In summary, Ana is a dependable and skilled iOS developer who excels in delivering high-quality software. Her analytical prowess, work ethic, and positive attitude make her an invaluable asset to any team. I highly recommend Ana for any iOS development projects.

Being Ana's mentee in the Women Who Code London community has been a valuable experience! Throughout the mentorship, Ana's been incredibly supportive, her dedication and commitment have been so important to build a great space where I feel safe and secure to discuss a wide range of topics. Not only did she help me level up my technical skills, but she also helped build my confidence as a developer. Her expertise and years of experience in the field add so much to our sessions, leading us to explore multiple approaches to the same problem. She has an open-minded approach and a lot of empathy which also contributes to creating this collaborative space. So far, we have discussed complex topics and explored challenging concepts, such as SOLID principles and Test-Driven Development (TDD), which has been so crucial to my development. I'm genuinely grateful to have Ana as my mentor, and I have no doubt that she'll continue to inspire and empower others in the tech industry.
