I admire Duaa’s curious nature and her urge to learn new things and practice them in her day-to-day activities. She has many questions that indicate her quest to acquire information and absorb the knowledge that will help her in her career. I have found her to be a good team player. She keeps her subordinates and seniors informed on the progress of her projects. Duaa strives to complete her tasks to meet the timelines in the most appropriate manner possible. She has a good sense of humor and enjoys her work while having fun. Her out-of-the-box thinking is another classic trait worth mentioning. I have worked closely with Duaa on many projects, and her enthusiasm is admirable. I enjoyed working with her, especially her attention to detail in finding solutions to simplify and speed-track the product development cycle. She has efficiently completed some critical projects for the brand by reducing the timeline by 40% to deliver the merchandise to stores when most required. Her persistence and consistent follow-ups proved to be a successful formula. I wish her the best in achieving greater heights in her professional and personal endeavors.

As a graduate student Duaa was smart, engaged, and thoughtful in her approach to course material. I anticipate she would be equally capable in many potential career paths.
