EUGENIA KLAASEN

FINANCIAL MANAGER

Sprout Performance’s Minister of Finance Eugenia – or Gina for short – is nothing short of a genius in her field.

The passion and drive she has for her role and her colleagues show in her work; even when tensions are high and stress levels increase, you will find Gina behind her computer working away with a smile on her face.

When she is away from the office, which isn’t often; you’ll likely find her planning her next holiday – or cuddling her ‘fancy looking’ cat.
