Bio
David Pardy MBE
I had the privilege of working alongside Shereen at the British Embassy Kuwait and, although in different sections, we collaborated on a wide range of UK/kuwait initiatives and work strands. Shereen is a highly motivated, enthusiastic and positive person who strives for excellence in all that she undertakes. She is vibrant, forward leaning and has energy and ideas in abundance. I cannot speak highly enough of her as an individual, but also as a professional in the work place. She communicates well, connects with everyone and is a tour de force on her own and as a team player. She is the sort of person I enjoy spending my working and sociable time with - a true gem in every respect. Whatever she turns her hand to, she is and always will be successful and life around her will never be dull.
Armin Fathy, IT Management Transport, Strategies, Service Delivery.
Shereen has the ability to establish good communication with People. She is definitely a people friendly when it comes to Customer facing duties. She has built a strong and deserved reputation as someone with vision, diligence and honor – someone who gets things done! I have no hesitation in recommending Shereen and know that she will always give of her best in any endeavor.
