Bio
Tiana S. Clark, The Audacious Commander
I was immediately drawn to Oumaima's work ethic when I saw an "illustrated bio" she created on LinkedIn. After a few conversations, I hired her on my team as a Communications & Marketing Specialist. Over the course of a year, I witnessed Oumaima blossom tremendously. I couldn't be more proud of her development and growth. The more latitude I gave her, the more she flourished, and she became the Creative Director for my business, excelling in project management, strategic communication, campaign development and execution (branding, graphic design, media writing, and social media management), written, audiovisual, and video content production, UX and website design, email campaign management, and more. Some of the greatest qualities that Oumaima posses are her integrity, her leadership and resourcefulness (she's self-taught on a wide variety of platforms), and her passion for my company's mission (empowering tween girls). She's a TRUE GEM.

Oumaima is great at digging deep into a project and doing research. She always has a great attitude and a willingness to learn new things. She spearheaded some projects at Heartland Community College that involved multiple stakeholders within and outside of the organization. She is very comfortable as an "outward facing" role and is not afraid to be on camera, approach people for the first time, or offer up new ideas. Oumaima has a very professional demeanor and represented out department well.
