"I have worked with many Creative Directors over the years, but being on Sander's team at Citrix was truly one of the highlights of my career. Sander is someone I respect and admire as a designer, collaborator, mentor, and leader. He brought passion, vision and innovation to Citrix; his bold ideas not only elevated our creative team to a respected internal agency, and helped to redefine the entire corporate brand, messaging and visual identity. I consider myself very lucky to have worked with Sander and would jump at the opportunity to do
so again."
