Bio
Craig Moy
I can say without reservation that Rasheed was one of the best interns I have ever managed. Among his many qualities, Rasheed was an excellent writer whose work was full of wit and ingenuity, but also precision-targeted at Where's specific audience. Highly professional, he was always willing to go the extra mile to get the job done, whether it was a simple fact checking task to producing a larger feature article. I was hugely pleased with Rasheed's work, and would not hesitate to recommend him for any journalism- or communications-related position.

Rasheed stands out as being exceptional in many ways. He is a talented writer with a very strong editorial eye, great instincts, and always looks to go above and beyond requirements and expectations. An utmost professional and always reliable, he is a pleasure to work with and is great team member that makes work fun.
