I worked on the same PM team with Lizette at Great Minds and couldn’t be more impressed! She’s an excellent project manager who makes it all look easy. Her project organization, aptitude for quick problem solving, and (most importantly) calm, friendly demeanor brings her team together toward smooth, successful projects.
