“I had the pleasure of working with Lisa for several years, and she consistently impressed me with her thoughtful and mature approach to management. Lisa is exceptionally well-learned in the field, always putting the needs of the business first, yet never in a way that compromises her integrity or that of her team. She has an innate understanding of the right thing to do in any situation. Lisa managed the healthiest team among all our Engineering Managers for four consecutive years. What makes this even more impressive is that her team was often overlarge and comprised mainly of contractors, a scenario that typically brings high levels of stress and churn. Despite these challenges, Lisa fostered a persistent, happy, and healthy team culture. Her ability to maintain such an environment under duress speaks volumes about her leadership skills. Her calm demeanor is one of her most remarkable traits. Lisa never succumbed to hysterics or drama, no matter how intense the situation. This level-headedness not only kept her team grounded but also set a standard for other managers, who frequently sought her out as a mentor. Innovative and forward-thinking, Lisa drove significant change within our organization. She initiated our first-ever innovation day and introduced several innovative organizational practices, including impactful data visualizations that were adopted by the broader organization and other managers. Her contributions were so effective that Directors in other parts of Venmo frequently heard engineers acclaiming Lisa as the best manager they had ever worked with. Moreover, Lisa possesses the rare ability to push back on leadership respectfully when necessary. Her balanced approach ensures that crucial points are communicated effectively without causing friction. In summary, Lisa is a standout manager whose contributions have left a lasting positive impact on our organization. She combines deep management knowledge with a practical, calm, and innovative approach, making her an invaluable asset to any team.”
