“ worked with Marilka in multiple capacities in our time together at BuySeasons. She was consistently kind, helpful, professional, and extremely skilled and knowledgeable in her position. Marilka has a great way of looking at projects, breaking them down, and making them manageable for her team. She uses her vast knowledge of design to coach her team and the rest of her coworkers through small site changes, email creation, catalog publications and full website redesigns. As my manager, Marilka was empowering, organized, and always encouraged me to expand my horizons and learn everything I could about my chosen career. Any company and team would be lucky to have Marilka.”
