I’ve had the privilege of working with Dunja during her nearly 10 years at TextNow, and her impact on the company has been truly transformative. Dunja played a pivotal role in shaping the culture and values that define who we are today. She developed our company values and launched the Values Bootcamp, ensuring they weren’t just words on a page but principles we live by every day. She also revamped onboarding, making the experience meaningful and consistent for every new team member, and built out the entire People and Culture function from the ground up. Her leadership has extended to strategic programs like our Compensation philosophy, the Culture Manual, and signature company events including All Hands, Waterloo Week, and the launch of the PPOC program. Each initiative has strengthened the way we connect as a company and reinforced a culture that truly reflects our values. What stands out most about Dunja is her authenticity and dedication. She doesn’t just talk about our values, she embodies them.

I have partnered with Dunja for nearly four years, and she consistently impresses me with her professionalism and authenticity. Working for a small, remote company can be challenging, particularly because the only constant is change. However, Dunja handles people-related policies with speed and conviction. For example, the company hosts an all-hands meeting each year, where employees gather at a designated location for a week. This event is nearly flawless, as she expertly coordinates travel, organizes the agenda, and ensures we have opportunities to connect in person and build lasting relationships. Thanks to Dunja's leadership, it truly is a fantastic event. More importantly, Dunja fosters relationships across the organization—from interns to leadership—creating a culture that prioritizes people. In short, she is an asset to any company.
