Meet Leenu, a Technical Manager celebrating her four-year work anniversary. Congratulations! Originally from Kerala, India, she made the move to Canada during the peak of the pandemic in 2020 and has since embraced Vancouver as her home. With 10 years of prior experience in the technical consulting space, Leenu entered the world of Source-to-Pay when she began her role at Optis. Working remotely with an agile team, she has been able to thrive in collaborating directly with clients to design and implement Source-to-Pay solutions. Her journey at Optis has been marked by leading the technical side of projects with precision and dedication, as well as building a community of other hard-working professionals. Outside of work, Leenu enjoys channeling her creativity through pencil sketching and has recently taken up Indian dance, even performing as an amateur dancer at several recent events. The group picture below is from the 2023 Optis Retreat in Vancouver, where Leenu and other team members had the opportunity to join together in person.  Thank you and congratulations, Leenu!

That is of course, accompanied by some friendly competition. Kudos to the entire team for choosing to prioritize your physical, mindful, and emotional wellness goals over the past few weeks. Check out some moments that were captured by Optis team members over the summer. #WellnessChallenge  #EmployeeWellbeing
