Bio
Patricia Barrantes
Dani has been by far one of the best people I’ve ever had the pleasure to work with. Her soft skills are unique, and everyone would benefit from having her as a manager and as a colleague. She has an inner ability to listen, understand, find a solution and empower everyone around her I’ve seen this in very few people. Also, her management style is forward and transparent - someone who always puts her team first and is a great support. Quoting her,

Daniella was a great mentor and manager to me at Kodify- it was my first in-house role and she really helped me get up to speed with hiring at scale. She led the HR function of the company at a global level and helped build a functioning HR department which enabled us to both hire successfully as well as nurture existing talent. I learned a lot from Daniella- she is always open to and giving feedback, which allowed me to develop and improve in my role, as well as contribute to improve the HR team. I'm very grateful for the time we spent working together, and her transparency, commitment to helping others and global approach to HR helped me to get where I am in my career
