Bio
Lotfi El Jai
Amara is one of the people that I have enjoyed working with throughout my college experience at Jackson State University. I invited her to join my team for a national-debt competition, and this was the best decision I have made. Amara is team player and takes initiative in what is best for the group. She is very detail-oriented and makes you always enjoy working with her. She is smart, talented, and has a high potential to achieve. I would highly recommend her to be part of your company/team.
