Bio
Andrea Römer
I was managed by Sonia during my time as an assistant in the Submissions team at Electronic Arts Madrid. I took my role without any knowledge but with her leadership it wasn't difficult at all. She taught me everything I needed to know and introduced me to my peers and colleagues in other departments facilitating business relations and open communication. Whenever I had questions or suggestions, she was available and open for my ideas which kept me motivated. I really appreciate how we worked side by side as a team and that she was interested in helping me grow as an employee with trainings or introducing me to other colleagues.
Ian Rice
Throughout the time I’ve worked with Sonia, over some 10 years now, she has continued to be incredibly diligent and scrupulous in her work, with a respectful understanding of the classification process and constraints set by various legal mandates. Yet, her creative thinking and an open mind to challenges has led to mutually accepted solutions to complications affecting numerous high-profile titles, helping create positive outcomes for both regulators and companies she has represented.
