Bio
Patricia Medina
Ms. Hannawi is a highly dedicated professional who I worked with at Palo Alto College. In my position as Project Director I was able to gain assistance from Ms. Hannawi when she was in the Disabilities Office and as a recruiter advisor for the Welcome Enrollment Center. She assisted in identifying students who would benefit from the TRiO program, gave recommendations on the students academic needs based on the students' physical or learning disabilities. Ms Hannawi also has made valuable contributions to various committees with her keen insights. She also saved the District millions of dollars in expenses when she brought to light an idea on interpreter services. She would be an asset to any organization she chose to work.
