Her wealth of knowledge in all things design, product, agile and more is impressive, and is ever expanding, as she finds the time to consume huge amounts of articles, books, podcasts, films and documentaries.

A true leader in that sense."),o.a.createElement("p",null,"As a manager, Milly was amazing.
