This is one of the easiest recommendations ever written. Irina is a rare combination of creative spark, strategic discipline and bottomless work ethic. We worked together on a variety of CRM campaigns and new business pitches, and it was a relief every time to know that she would be applying her unique brand of excellence to the task. Seriously, she is one of those people who is constantly in demand from account directors and project managers. Why? Because everyone knows that Irina always -- ALWAYS -- set a high bar for herself and the people on her team. The woman delivers. Once I watched her jump onto her first PayPal assignment and produce a sparkling evolution of the brand in a manner of days. It was typical, really. She's purposeful. She's talented. Her work is simply first-class. If this sounds like I'm describing a serious professional, well, that's very true. But Irina is also a delightful human being who makes her projects better through her warm personality as well as her stellar creativity. She's a unicorn, basically. I hope you're lucky enough to work with her one day.

Irina is sharp, talented, knows her discipline, and most importantly, has a lot of passion for creativity. I truly enjoyed having her on our creative team. No matter how big or small the assignment, she would deliver 100% and even ask for more. I highly recommend Irina at any creative field. She makes me proud.
