When we worked together, Marisa quickly stood out as a natural leader. What started as her shadowing some of my Product Owner responsibilities soon made it clear she had the judgment, ownership, and trust of the team to step into the role herself while I moved on to new challenges. Leaving the team knowing the work was in her hands was a huge relief, and it’s been great to watch her continue to thrive since then.

I worked with Marisa on several projects, where I truly saw her grow and evolve across various roles. One thing remained constant: her commitment, attention to detail, and drive to deliver an excellent product. Whether testing or defining the product—in easy situations or those requiring significant resilience—she was always a team player who contributed significantly to our successful delivery. Any team would be lucky to have her.
