Sajedul "Pavel" Hoq

Mahenaz worked with me back in 2012-2013 in the captivity of operational and HR management. Since then she has moved on to doing brand management and then waste management and sustainability. She is a focused professional with a keen eye on being through and systematic. She is also driven and has a good vision on where she wants to be. I believe that she will continue to grow professionally and do well in any role in the coming years.
