Bio
Joan F. Puyol
We had the pleasure and honor to have Kim in our team for more than a year. Kim is an exceptional operations expert, capable of transforming any marketing strategy into a detailed planning of projects, milestones, tasks and complex workflows combining multiple internal and external stakeholders. She transforms any team into a perfect Swiss watch, capable of estimating and managing workloads, commit to deadlines with extreme accuracy and maximize output delivery. Thanks to her interpersonal talent and people skills, she is extremely valuable in maintaining a great team spirit whilst having everyone committed to deliver results. Any team leader would be making the best investment of their life by incorporating her in their team. Hundreds of hours of good sleep guaranteed, while you can rest assured the machine is always on :) If you don't hire her today, rest assured I will try again soon :)

Kim's brain must have been supercharged. I don't know how she managed so many complex, sometimes ambiguous, projects and kept everyone on track while always being so calm and charming at all times. She was also the heart of the team. With team members across two continents in a hybrid environment, it could have been difficult to keep the team spirits lifted and everyone working smoothly together - she made it look easy. She's empathetic, thoughtful and highly organised. I will really miss working with her.
