Bio
Tamir Abdel-wahab
I'm lucky to have worked with Corliss on several projects during my time at ASIFMA. She's a constant professional who guides her staff and all she works with to achieve the highest level of excellence. Her ability to communicate and manage stakeholders at all levels is second to none. She also cares deeply about the professional development of junior staff in an organization. At ASIFMA, she instrumented an open-door policy that, regardless of division, we could come to her for guidance and mentorship in our careers. She's an amazing asset that I would recommend to any organization.

I’ve been lucky enough to have worked with Corliss as a journalist and as a colleague. She has remarkable people skills, which help her develop creative solutions to issues and generate alignment across cross-functional stakeholders. She also works across a diverse set of issues, and she’s able to efficiently multi-task and quickly prioritize projects. In addition, Corliss is an extraordinary mentor; she’s a great listener who provides practical and actionable feedback. I’ve learned so much from Corliss, and would highly recommend her to any organization.
