Colleagues describe her as "Candace is an engineer on my team who campaigned for a PM rotation within our department (a first for us!), and I was lucky enough to mentor her. Candace’s enthusiasm was undeniable from the get-go, and she made her wish to PM happen. While I expected Candace to be great during her rotation, she blew away any and every expectation I had. Candace is incredibly sharp, self-motivated, and driven. In the same way she made her rotation come to fruition, she organized numerous customer interviews and conducted them with efficiency and utmost grace. Candace is a natural at UX research; she possesses a talent for putting people at ease and communicates genuine empathy for their challenges. She sees and feels problem areas and can apply both an engineering- and product-oriented lens to them. She presented her analysis throughout the org and up to execs, and her findings gave us invaluable insight into the future. Aside from being a complete professional, Candace is a blast to work with. She is warm, funny, curious, and open - an absolute dream to mentor. I am honored to have been part of her journey and can’t wait to see what other amazing things she will do. Thank you for all your awesome work on researching our customers, Candace!"
