Gema Watson Wood

IdaRose was the head of the Outreach Committee for the Mountain View Environmental Sustainability Task Force 2. Her positive spirit led us through some challenges with grace and her sense of humor made meetings enjoyable. She knows how to speak with clarity and tact. As a leader, IdaRose’s confidence, enthusiasm, great listening and critical thinking skills brought out the best in the Outreach Committee helping us shine through our term with the MVESTF2. I would feel privileged to have the opportunity to work with her again.

IdaRose was the director of Babson's San Francisco Summer Venture Program in 2016 and did a phenomenal job. From the moment the program started IdaRose put the cohort before herself. She went above and beyond the requirements of her duties; and was always willing to help or bounce ideas off of each other - no matter the day or time. On top of this, She works extremely well in a team environment, is very open-minded, and always gives an individual a fair opportunity. IdaRose has years of experience in start-ups and I think I speak for the group when saying how thankful we are to have collaborated with and learn from her. Furthermore, IdaRose is a leader and someone I hope to work with again in the future. She is arguably a "Startup Whisperer" and I truly believe that having her as a member of your team is an invaluable asset.
