“Working with Marisa was something I look back on and consider to be one of the most influential/important and enjoyable times of my life. She had an innate ability to get the best out of those she managed and lead by believing in them, giving them the confidence necessary to succeed. When I joined UNiDAYS, we were in a wework space with just 4 employees, and were given the task by our C levels in the UK to crack the code that was the United States Gen Z student market. Anyone in marketing knows that this generation of 18-24 year old college students are arguably the hardest to engage with content, and ads, let alone get them to join a community (UNiDAYS). While the VP of sales and Head of the US office (acting GM), Marisa and our team of 4 grew to 10, then to 20, then to 30 etc... and our member base of students (our main KPI) grew from 100k to 1.5M verified college students within 1.5 years time. This was done with little to no marketing budget. The success and growth of our member base, client base, and subsequent revenues were outputs solely based off of the deals closed by Marisa and our team. Marisa then gave me the opportunity to head the US Account Management team. This ended up being a wonderful experience that gave me the confidence and tools to excel within my career after taking a lot of what I learned from her managing me. Most importantly, beyond all of the skills, achievements, numbers, and references of success, Marisa is someone I call a close friend and mentor that I will have for life. She is someone I trust, believe in, and would work with 10 times over if given the opportunity. Anyone who gets the chance to work with her will agree that her character and culture impact is her best asset. All in all, M is a 10/10!”

It's so important to step away from your desk a few times a day, get outside and get some fresh air.
