I have met Marcela on my first job in the UK. She immediately took the initiative to support me in finding my way through all the trainings, and get familiar with the town. Marcela has an eagle eye for details, deadline conscious and never hesitates to roll up her selves and get things done. The business greatly benefited from her pragmatism and professionalism.
