"I had the chance to work with Anna on the game Dead By Daylight for almost 2 years and I definitely recommend her. She is proactive, passionate and always eager to learn new things. She helped me a lot during my integration and throughout the two years even though I'm more experienced in the industry than her. I would love to work with her again!"
