Bio
Sakshi Gupta
As my manager at the onset of my career, Misha had the great undertaking of teaching me the fundamentals of human capital practice. Misha taught me to be detail-oriented and precise, but also encouraged me to work independently and take ownership while still being available and approachable to work through any questions. There are few managers who are able to walk the line between a professional relationship and a personal relationship, and Misha managed to do so effortlessly with both our internal team and clients. She has the grace to tackle any issue or fire drill with ease and exudes the confidence that she is always working towards your best interests. Her experience alone makes her an extremely powerful candidate, and her personality and grace give her unmatched value. I am truly grateful for her mentorship and constant support.

I got to know Misha when she hired me for GetupGo! I got to work with her very closely in that role. Not only was she an inspiring and passionate leader, but also a trustworthy and honest friend. She deeply cares about people and was always willing to go the extra mile to help others out. She is extremely hard-working and manages her work to perfection. She is also a brilliant at forging strong relationship and public-speaking. I have learnt a great deal of things from her, which have made me a better person and a better professional.
