Pryash is creative and curious leader. She is always ready to bring new ideas to life. I have found her the perfect sparing partner to test new concepts. When we were working on a project to make every job at Roche a sustainable job I also realised the extend of Pryash's knowledge in the field of sustainability, continuous learning about climate change & UNSDGs as well as her willingness to learn even more from others. She is an amazing team player and it's a pleasure to work together even when situations are tough. Anyone would be lucky to have her on their team.
