Summary

As a globally seasoned professional and a current Business student at a leading London university, I bring an exceptionally broad and diverse perspective to the table. My unique journey has spanned three continents, beginning with my academic foundation in the Middle East. I then cultivated twenty years of impactful experience in trade and sales across Africa, also excelling in humanitarian initiatives, which was followed by a significant decade of life and engagement in Europe. This extensive background has not only provided me with fluency in three different languages but also a profound understanding of three distinct social traditions and cultural nuances.

I am a person who genuinely loves to work and develop, constantly seeking growth and improvement. I am an inspiring leader for my colleagues, fostering an environment of collaboration and motivation. My approach is characterized by unwavering honesty and loyalty, coupled with a deep-seated respect for all individuals and cultures. My commitment to service is paramount, and I apply both rational thought and heartfelt effort to contribute positively to the community and country I inhabit. I am a dedicated listener, constantly eager to learn new concepts, and passionate about fostering the prosperity and development of any organization I join. My goal is to leverage this unique blend of international acumen, academic insight, and dedicated leadership to achieve shared success. Loyal employee with solid understanding of training and mentoring employees. Dedicated team player, proactive and hands-on in task completion. Energetic employee well-versed in strong communication and organisation skills. Seeks solutions to problems and applies extensive analytical knowledge to findings. Adept at multi-tasking, leading group discussions and managing projects.
