Rana is an extremely knowledgeable and detail-oriented colleague that I was very fortunate to work with on a special project. Her expertise in Central Master helped to create an automated HR to Concur feed that eliminated manual work and enhanced controls.

Rana worked with myself and team on numerous HRIT projects. She worked closely with us and her extensive experience within Avon and in previous organisations was helpful. She was always willing to offer her assistance and had a great rapport with other parts of the IT organisation to help secure information as needed. Soft spoken and amiable, Rana’s biggest skill lies in her ability to network across functions and multi-task effectively.
