"I worked with Krista during our time at Lyft where she led the Operations team for a large program that involved both engineering and operations.
Krista played a crucial role in growing the program from zero to nationwide scale, and her contribution has been invaluable to the team's success. Krista demonstrated excellent research skills, diving deep into problems and working closely with our customers to allow the team to create our roadmap based on data and customer needs.
As the program grew, Krista also scaled the Operations team and adapted the team's processes to fit the scale, while working closely with engineering in parallel to help create the tooling needed to support smooth operations.
She also resolved a number of complicated external dependencies and problems, working closely with external partners and suppliers.
I am confident that Krista will be instrumental in any endeavor she decides to take on next."
