“Nora was the third person ever to join Ganaz, a technology startup that addresses shared pain points between agricultural employers and their workers, in a way that makes a real difference for both. She is that combination of smart, resourceful and tenacious that any team needs. She creates authentic relationships with customers that help us grow our business and understand our customers and their workers better. She builds bridges internally and externally, reminds us what's important, and pushes us forward. She works incredibly hard and brings cohesion and flow to a team. She's an incredible person to work with, do anything you can to get her on your team!”
