Bio
Agris Smilga
I had the pleasure to work with Sandijs in the web sales department at Tet. With his exceptional skills in web data analytics, he was responsible to generate valuable insights into our website's performance. He consistently demonstrated a keen eye for detail, quickly identifying patterns and trends to guide decision-making that led to sales and improved user experience. In addition to all other recommendations, I would like to add that he brought with him a great sense of humanity, calm, and inspiration that made a huge impact on the entire team. He always made himself available to help his colleagues, even when he had a heavy workload. He showed empathy towards everyone, listened to their concerns, and provided guidance whenever needed. I surely can say that his positive attitude towards work and life, in general, helped our work environment to be a better place. Keep up going your way Sandijs!

Few people are as structured and reliable as Sandijs. We worked together at a startup inzpire.me AS for almost 3 years. It was very valuable to have Sandijs on the team owning product analytics. As in many early stage companies, we had to put a lot of things together from scratch - decide on the tools and processes, land on the most valuable/ meaningful metrics to track and in general make sense of things in highly ambiguous environment. His ability to structure the thought process, apply his vast knowledge (he reads a lot) and previous experience to solve new challenges is outstanding. Give him a problem and he will find a way to make sense of it and suggest at least a couple of good ways to tackle it. Same can be said about his ability to explain to the wider team his process, choices made, insights found and conclusions made to get everyone on the same page and ensure buy-in. Sandijs would be an asset to any team!
