🦔 jonny sywulak
I cannot recommend Antonia highly enough! I had the pleasure of working with Antonia for the better part of a decade during my tenure at Stelligent. During that time she wore a number of hats, and excelled at everything she worked on. She handled all operations tasks: accounting, payroll, expenses, legal, hiring, and on and on; initially, she was the entire operations team! She was critical to the growth of the company from a handful of engineers to 100+ person consulting company, and she handled it with professionalism and grace. Her contributions were critical to growing the company and guiding it through two acquisitions. I consider myself lucky to have been able to work with her, and would leap at the chance to do so again.
