“Nothing is complicated. Break it down, prioritize, find efficiencies. When everything runs smoothly, there’s space for creativity and productivity.”

It takes courage to think differently, and Monna knows it. At age 5, this Richard Branson fan built a child-sized rocket from grocery cartons and duct tape. At 19, she dropped a promising nursing career to pursue her love of tech at an internet marketing firm—one she would soon come to lead. In 2016, Mona launched her own web development agency. With her “Just do it” mantra, Monna’s approach to work is singularly strategic and systematic.

Now General Manager at PaperplaneCo, Monna goes out of her way to keep all stakeholders happy, juggling multiple projects and teams with enviable ease. Mom to a teenager and two snuggly cats, Monna enjoys long walks and keeping up with Elon Musk’s Mars project. Warning: With her unflaggingly upbeat attitude and ace organizational skills, Monna’s productive vibe can be contagious.

“With every single interaction I have with a new client, a whole new world opens up for me. I love learning, and I love contributing.”

Unlike most people, Jess’ first love was a language – Russian. Her fondness for languages brought her from the United States across the world to Europe, where she indulged in a novel world of language learning.

While living in Hungary, Jess started contemplating the possibility of becoming a writer. Serendipitously, she received a phone call from her friend with a full-time scriptwriting opportunity. After accepting the offer and working as a scriptwriter for two years, Jess experimented in other fields, yet kept writing in her life by freelancing during nights and weekends. 

At one point, she worked at Antavo alongside e-commerce and omnichannel retailers that were creating and implementing new loyalty programs, which gave her the unique insight on B2B operations that she has today. After experiencing life across diverse professions, Jess realised that being a writer was her true calling, and returned to writing full-time.

Now as the go-to scriptwriter for webinars and videos at PaperplaneCo, Jess is also involved in the creative development for new series and projects. She loves meeting new clients, and every new project opens up a new world for Jess to explore. 

Currently residing in Spain, Jess teaches an aerial hoop class once a week. In the future, Jess hopes to work on projects contributing to sustainability.

“The great thing about my job is that I’m not really limited to my role.”

Marco loves to live free of limitations. He believes that if you want to stand out, you need to think differently, speak differently, and live differently. That’s why Marco pushes himself to try a lot of things and adapt. He finds that flexibility helps him think without restrictions and try new things, both personally and at work.

Marco has over a decade of experience in Digital Marketing, SEO and Statistical Analysis. As a driven, self-educated digital marketing professional, he has strategised and executed successful SEO campaigns for clients like Deloitte. Marco values the people he works with and a team environment that allows him to work autonomously, experiment, and leave his mark on each of the projects he’s involved with.

“I relish co-creating powerful stories with clients that connect with audiences, support revenue growth and deliver positive impact.”

Laura has always had a passion for storytelling. She spent her childhood gripped by tales of adventure and times past from her Irish mum and Kiwi dad, inspiring a fascination with literature and history; and igniting a passion for travel.

Studying Law at university gave her a solid grounding in methodical research. An MA in Critical and Cultural Studies deepened her understanding of narrative techniques and the media. Combining these skills, she has been on a truly rewarding career path in B2B communications, advising tech consultancies such as Capgemini, KPMG and EY.

She has also worked as a freelance journalist for national and international media, including The Daily Express (UK), The National (Abu Dhabi) and El Pais in Spain. She spent almost seven years in Spain and learned the language. She has also worked in the Middle East with private companies and governments.  She now lives back in the UK.

Laura enjoys helping clients articulate and shape stories that connect with audiences, support revenue growth and deliver positive impact. Outside work, Laura loves to grab a backpack and rove round wild, off-the-beaten-track places with her family.

“Market analysis isn’t only research and data collection. It’s the “So what?” phase that counts. Anyone can collect information, the real value lies in how you interpret it and how you present it.”

Market Intelligence is Wawrzyniec’s bread and butter, a skill that he first picked up as a management consultant at Deloitte Poland in 2014.

A lawyer by education, Wawa’s analytical skills backed by his deep interest in business strategy help him identify patterns and interpret trends to find new opportunities. Heavily influenced by the MECE (Mutually Exclusive Collectively Exhaustive) principle, Wawa uses lateral thinking and problem-solving techniques to arrive at insights faster.

At PaperplaneCo, Wawa’s thorough business analysis and in-depth market research help us create content that capitalizes on our clients’ unique strengths and sets them apart from the competition. Wawa is outgoing, helpful, and always trying to liven up the atmosphere with his quirky sense of humour.
