Bio
Lara Kingstone
I had the pleasure of working with Farhan for over 9 months, during his social media internship. He consistently was a pillar of reliability, creativity and excellent teamwork. While the internship only required 6 months, he stayed on, taking on projects such as drafting an essential social media analytic report for the team, which highlighted best practices and suggestions for going forward. He was always responsive and energetic, and worked beautifully with myself, his fellow interns and the organization in general. In addition, he regularly stepped up to take on items and volunteer for various projects. It was clear that Farhan's diligence and hard work came from a real desire to make impact in the world, and I have no doubt that Farhan will continue to do great things. Any organization would be lucky to work with him, given his passion for justice, stellar communication skills and understanding of what is needed to make a team work cohesively. His fantastic work and pleasant nature will be missed at Sahiyo!
