Testimonials



  • Wendy delivers results. I was fortunate enough to have Wendy on our team at Airbnb legal, and she was instrumental in getting our data and legal operations function off the ground and humming. She integrated herself seamlessly into Airbnb's fast-paced culture and collaborated so effectively with others in the department and across functions. She always came to me with solutions, not problems, and I would hire her again without any hesitation.

  • Wendy would be an extraordinary asset to any operations team. I was lucky enough to work with Wendy for two years at Airbnb, where she demonstrated both exceptional creative problem-solving skills and the ability to drive change and move projects forward--a rare and valuable combination! Most importantly she is a hardworking, dedicated, and generous colleague.
