Ana Porto

I've worked with Svetlana for close to two years, first as a Provider and Client and afterwords as a co-worker at Mitto AG. During this time, Svetlana demonstrated not only mastery for her core role, but also the ability to take on new tasks that were both difficult and critical to the company's growth. Her productivity and ambition sets a great example for the rest of the team, and explains why everyone enjoyed working with her.
