Debbie and I worked together on the launch of Y Soft's first Cloud product. Her leadership skills, her integrity and dedication, as well as willingness to go out of her way to help everyone made a tremendous positive impact on the product and the company as a whole. What is more, she made it her priority to educate and support fellow colleagues on the Cloud readiness journey, acting as a change champion and a go-to person for all things Cloud. I highly recommend Debbie and would love to work with her again.

As a security specialist in Y Soft, I was working closely with Debbie in Product Owner role for a few months. Cooperating with her was always a pleasure for me. Thanks to her experience and very proactive attitude, we were able to quickly translate a long list of security requirements into prioritized and actionable items in product backlog. Debbie is also a great communicator or meeting facilitator. She is able to convey a clear message and her enthusiasm is contagious.
