Working with Stefana as a team leader is a tremendous learning opportunity given her kindness, great leadership skills and ability to transform the work environment into a collaborative laboratory, where innovative ideas and experimentation merge with knowledge and experience. It is worth highlighting her ability to deliver complex prefabricated projects in collaboration with international teams, where members are efficient and motivated to go beyond what is required. In short, a great experience with valuable learnings.

Stefana was an amazing boss, she was a real leader! She was able to make a group of people passionate about our projects and our studio's mission. This was not a regular architecture studio but a space for people wanting to research, innovate and grow. Through kindness, Stefana created an environment that allowed us to learn while creating incredible bamboo-based projects. It was an honor and a joy to have her as my boss.
