Bio
Brad Drummond
Halmat Palani is a vibrant and engaging professional. His knowledge and pursuit of social justice, education and political science is extensive.
Alan Hopkins
Halmat, I would described as dedicated, sincerely striving to make his work be justifiable in value, and committed to doing his part to make teams harmonious and successful together. While I’ve understood that he has moved on from education, I am certain that his good humour and willingness take the time to connect positively with others continues to elevate the work he does in public relations or any endeavour he takes on.
