“I had the good fortune to work alongside Angela at Verifone, launching a new in-store digital media solution into the marketplace. Her ability to juggle multiple projects & balance priorities, while at the same time stepping beyond her job description to engage clients, add her creative expertise to the UI experience, or simply talk the sales guys off the ledge when needed, made her an invaluable member of the team, and contributed tremendously to the success of the platform.

Angela is a true team player, whose passion for the business and commitment to quality in execution, make her an asset to any organization.”
