Roberta Migliore

Karolina is the best person I could have asked to work with! She is professional, effective, and proactive. We are doing a fantastic job together, and see what we will manage to do in the near future.

Jennie Blythe

Karolina has great interpersonal skills and a can-do attitude, standing out not just within her own team but as someone who can work collegiately across a business, understanding the position of others and striving towards a mutually satisfactory, commercially driven conclusion. Karolina's work ethic is really strong and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to any retail organisation seeking a highly competent merchandiser.
