Bio
Alicia Lew
Mahmud is a quick study and a joy to work with. He is the type of employee or colleague that is every manager's dream. He is a hard worker who knows when to ask for assistance and is resourceful in finding solutions to unexpected challenges. I had the pleasure of coaching Mahmud and witnessing first hand the growth of his technical expertise which is driven by his desire to excel. During his tenure as IT Assistant and Web Designer at UMBC he was instrumental in the redesign of the Graduate School's website and also with the enhancement of the Student Admissions and Document Imaging systems. I have no doubt that he will be an asset to any organization that he chooses to affiliate himself with.

Mahmud is one of those special workers who understands what he needs to do, and asks questions when he does not understand. When he worked under me, he completed all his work, and gave no gruff. When hiring him, he was a difficult decision against one other candidate. In the end I was more than glad I chose Mahmud. He was very easy to manage, and continues to get glowing reviews from colleagues, even after I have left. He is very personable once you get to know him. He is into new technology, and represents some of the bright minds of the future web, it, and tech!
