VP of Professional Services at SharpenJune 17, 2024, Mychal managed PK directly

I met PK in early 2021, when she interviewed for an internship at Plum Voice. After her interview it was a unanimous decision, we all wanted to offer her the position on the spot. At the time, PK didn't have any familiarity with our technology stack, but she had a strong work ethic and was highly organized. She excelled on all individual projects we assigned her and played key roles on team projects. Her performance as an intern was so strong, we created a position to hire her when the company wasn't ordinarily looking to hire. As a full time team member, PK took ownership of several internal applications, including tools used by our Development and Support teams. Her early roles were more front-end focused, but she reached out an expressed as desire to take on more back-end responsibilities, with a desire of becoming a more complete engineer. PK was always great about asking for the information she needed to complete her tasks. When I had the opportunity to manage her directly, I appreciated her ability to tell me directly what she needed from me.

I highly recommend PK as an exceptional professional and teammate. Having started as my intern, she quickly proved to be the best I've ever had. PK possesses solid full stack skills, showcasing a remarkable ability to learn and adapt swiftly. Her proactive approach to problem-solving, evident in her self-learning of tools like Figma, has significantly contributed to our team's success.

Her initiative extends beyond individual growth, as she played a pivotal role in making a whole design system in a very short time, showcasing her leadership and innovation.
