Taking a step back from my research project here in La Paz, I want to thank all my new friends that I have made at Elemental.

It’s not a goodbye, but a see you later

Daniella, who’s the Founder and CEO, has been extremely supportive in all my efforts with Elemental. She has an open mind to new ideas, and is always looking for ways to improve the organization.

Mauge is the first friend that I made at Elemental. We both started our first days on the same day! She was trying out the position as administrative assistant. We spent a lot of time together and always helped each other, especially since we were the newbies in the office.

Monica is the graphic designer for Elemental. She always had new ideas for designs, and incorporated our feedback into her work.

Carla was a volunteer, but had a lot of experience in marketing and client relationships. I learned something new from her every single time we had a conversation.

Andy is the secretary for Elemental, who always greeted you with a friendly smile. She was a great person to talk to during our off-time in the office.

Jose is the instructor of App Design and robotics. I observed a lot of his classes, and am always inspired by his wealth of knowledge, experience, and patience with his students. We shared many stories, opinions, and laughs.

Our first dinner together!

I am extremely thankful to all those who worked with me in Elemental, who had respect and patience for my communication skills, and listened actively to my feedback. I thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to get to know every single person both in and out of the office!
