“Melissa was my favourite hiring manager at Puppet. She is a stellar leader, always going above and beyond to ensure that we had the necessary information to hire for her team. As a technical recruiter, I was always supported in building my knowledge of technical products and processes employed by the team and how that translated into the requisite skills. Melissa always gave feedback, being available for scheduled syncs, asynchronous collaborations and post-campaign retros. She is a great leader and is passionate about developing a strong team.”

Hawai'i Here Mobile Site
An app built for both visitors and Hawaiian residents that could guide everyone to the best spots across all of the islands. A tool that could reward HawaiianMiles loyalty program members by giving them a dashboard on their balances, engaging them to establish travel goals, and assisting them in locating merchants that offer HawaiianMiles credits with purchases.
