Elena is a confident project manager and a skilled people manager. In our fast-paced workflow, Elena was able to anticipate where problems might arise later in the development process and work with the team to avoid them. When the unavoidable happened, she knew how to quickly prioritize tasks to keep the team on track for success. I personally enjoyed working with her because of her approach toward people and creativity when challenges arose.
Elena can easily handle large scale projects and create structure for ambiguous creative workflows. I highly recommend Elena for any challenging project!
