It was great how Katja used her network, knowledge about the country and people skills, as well as her technical communication expertise and enthusiasm, for the fundraiser we organized on behalf of the Dutch school in Bogota. The campaign was a great success. Katja is very good at coming up with new ideas and at the same time, listening to others.
