“I’ve been working closely with Sandy on multiple challenging projects over many years. Right from the beginning I could easily see how she was devoted to making great products, but also cultivating great relationships with partners. Sandy is always looking for solutions, and does not abandon when facing immense challenges. She also always made sure to include all the right folks to solve issues as efficiently as possible. Sandy, it was a pleasure working and sharing with you and I truly hope that, one day, we can work together again. ”
