Bio
Marianna De Meo
I have worked in the same team as María for 2 years. She joined the team around 1 year after I did, so I also had the chance to train her on some of the accounts we shared. Since the very first day María proved to be eager to learn, professional and client focused. She learnt extremely fast and was able to lead some of the most complex projects and demanding clients from the start, never backing down from a challenge. Actually, she was proactively working towards finding solutions for difficult projects. She is also incredibly helpful - for example, she always found a moment to help me with her French skills whenever I was dealing with projects from France. Last but not least, María is great to work with, she is fun and bubbly and makes the whole team smile.

Apart from being an extraordinary human being, Maria is such a hard, responsible and organized colleague. Since the first day we met and started working together she showed me how prepared she was, how eager was to take new challenges and responsibilities and how willing was she to make her mates’ working life easier. I miss working with Maria a lot and I wish we could work together again super soon!
