Bio
Liane Torcoletti
I am very pleased to write this statement of recommendation for Ms. Nwabueze. She and I were colleagues at the DeVry University Tutoring Center. During our time together I found her to be highly intelligent, engaging and motivated in her desire to share and absorb knowledge. As a business professional with nearly 30 years of experience, I find it an exception to cross paths with people who are truly genuine in personality, common sense and professional abilities but lack the arrogance in needing to share proof. We were often challenged by the politics of campus hierarchy and finding ways to help students overcome obstacles; Ms. Nwabueze handled both with grace and composure. It is not an understatement to say that she would be a highly valued asset to any organization.
