"...[Alexi] was incredibly encouraging, was always receptive to my input, and adeptly guided me through taking on projects while still allowing for me to learn independent, creative problem solving. I acquired skills...at an exciting pace. I will always be thankful my first manager was so knowledgeable and supportive!"
