Bio
Vertti Sinisalo
Throughout the year, Saara has shown great professionalism and due diligence when taking on marketing projects of considerable scale, even with very minimal internal support. She's passionate and conscientious toward whatever she is doing, and it shows in her results. Communication wise she's an important resource to any project, as she always makes sure her colleagues are on the same page, reducing uncertainty and making working with her a lot less stressful. Because of her communication skills and her attention to detail, Saara spots any issues and mistakes early on, and she's willing to work hard to fix them. In addition, for the first few months of my job, although Saara might not have realized it, she was the greatest resource I had in terms of getting started at my new role. She made me feel welcome, made me accept a part of the uncertainty in my new role and in general make my work environment considerably more positive. For that I'm grateful. I'd like to recommend Saara to any position she might pursue, and wish luck to her colleagues, you'll be happy to have her on board. - Vertti
