Bio
Isabella Zeylon
Elena and I worked very close together during my time at Unilever Jerónimo Martins. It was a pleasure to work with Elena as she is a highly devoted professional. She works hard and never leaves job unfinished. One of her assets that I cherished the most was her ability to spread positive energy among the team and all our colleagues. It is very easy to work with Elena, she is the perfect team player. She is fast in thought and action. I give Elena the best recommendations!
