“Dorothy is a high-spirited MarComm expert. I was always impressed by her high level of entrepreneurship and ability to come through with excellence.

“Dorothy is a highly skilled, passionate Marketer with excellent people skills. Although we were part of a geographically diverse team, Dorothy managed to build up valuable relationships that overarched continents and led to successful company-wide projects. Her professionalism, hard work and market knowledge were the cornerstone of EPAM’s Employer Branding efforts in the APAC region. She always had a unique insight or added a different perspective to our conversations that helped the team to move things forward. I would heartily recommend her for any position out of the Marketing stack.”
