Marina Ponomareva

Who I am: While some jokingly call me the “Office Mom”, I’d argue that I’m more the lifelong cheerleader in all my communities, both personal and professional.

A Moscow girl turned Helsinkiläinen (preparing to survive my 7th winter!), with a goal to help people around me experience success. Since becoming a voice of that playground sandbox, I’ve been engaging others into various activities with the same infectious enthusiasm.

The values I stand by: Community, Commitment, Growth, Authenticity, Challenge, and Fun.

Me in numbers: 5 countries I've studied and worked in | 6 years of work experience, mainly from tech and business | 2 degrees: International Business & Marketing Communications | 6 companies: 1 non-profit, 2 start ups & 3 corporate | 200+ partners and clients | 7 big projects completed on-time & on-budget | 100% positivity.

What others say: My mentors and colleagues appreciate my drive and ability to influence. What I'm also known for is my personal approach along with quirky style.

Why me: My attitude, international experience, and superb communication ability to connect with Your audience. I love interacting with people, inspiring them, while always broadening my horizons.
