Bio
Valerie Collins
Monika joined my team when Riverbed acquired OPNET Technologies. Monika was amazing; she was able to hit the ground running with all the new systems and Riverbed order process. Monika was assigned some of the toughest Sales People and did her job with extreme professionalisms and always with a smile. She had a way of working with Sales people who didn’t want to follow the process for getting their orders booked, she would guide them and had the ability to get them to see things her way (which was the right way) to get their orders processed. Whenever Monika had any down time she would always reach out to other team members to see if they needed help. Monika would be an asset to any organization and it was my pleasure to work with her. One of the best team players!

Monika worked for me for well over ten years at OPNET in Sales Operations handling some of the most challenging, nuanced and difficult parts of our business outside the United States. Monika learned the business and grew significantly over the years, developing an expertise in handling the international business and becoming the internal subject matter expert. Monika is very hard working, focused on her job and committed. She also is willing to learn, adapt and change to the requirements of the business. Anyone looking for a seasoned professional in an operational role in a diverse, international business would be extremely well served by Monika in this area, and I would highly recommend serious and close consideration for her for any such position.
