Lovisa has been with Devoteam for over 4 years, working with multiple cloud vendors during that period. Starting out as a Project Manager, gaining certifications within G Suite and Salesforce, it was a natural step to start helping customers with their complete cloud setup, including Okta. Apart from customer work, she also has experience with management, both in resources and budget. With several Okta implementations under her belt and an Okta Professional certification in the bag, she now heads the Okta practice within Devoteam.
