Sales Representative at Convoso Inc
It is always a pleasure to work alongside Priya. She is not only innovative in her approach, but she has expert skills in connecting with people. She also possesses some type of magic (maybe stardust?) when it comes to allowing others to express themselves while forming ideas. It is like she somehow puts a lightbulb above your head and feeds you energy, so you end up turning on that lightbulb—and the lightbulb shines bright.
