Bio
Samantha Powell
Nazreen is one of the most conscientious, pleasant, talented people I have had the pleasure to work with. She was always willing to take on a new challenge, learn new things, and get the job done - not only on time, but impeccably. No matter what the day brought, she always had a positive, can-do attitude that lifted the whole team up. I truly miss working with her.
Jacob Worrell
Nazreen is one of the most reliable and conscientious team members I've ever had the pleasure of working with. She is thorough, crossing every T and dotting every I, exactly what you look for in a database expert. In addition, Nazreen has an amazingly positive attitude that she brings with her into the office. Her ability to keep, not only cool under intense pressure, but seemingly bright and cheery is, frankly, otherworldly; her team members would always look to her as a pick-me-up. She's a great addition to any office or team. I miss working with her.
