Bio
Daniel Butucel
Monica is one of the most dedicated team player I ever worked with. If the organization she is working in or the project she is part of has an impact on the community or society overall, nothing can stop her to achieve her goals. She is very skilled in sales, partnerships, product and project management, from strategy to execution, and her results in Startup Weekend and How to Web speak for herself. I worked with her during my experience in the Over4 project when she advised and supported us in fundraising. Since then, we kept in touch, shared knowledge, and collaborated on various projects and initiatives. I'm personally impressed and inspired by her professional growth, fueled by her ambition and dedication. I highly recommend Monica for her skills and willingness to progress, and I believe she could be a great asset to any company or startup active in the tech industry.

Feb 2017 - Jul 2018
Due to my analytical and organizational skills I successfully complete a wide range of tasks. Starting with defining rapport templates based on users behavior and continue with analyzing different type of users and defining persona. Another project was to create a strategy to update the company website and to lead the team I was working with. Most of the tasks were from the Digital Marketing area which made me curious and I've started to study more about this subject. To complete my tasks I'he learned to use a wide range of tools, like Google Analytics, Moz tools, Wordpress, Email marketing tools (Sendinblue, MailChimp) and some others which helped me to monitor and analyze user experience on website.
