Working with Touria for more than 4 years helped me realize how her leadership and strong critical thinking can help align people with the institution's goals. Her perfectly spoken English, French and Arabic helps her engage and inspire team with diverse cultures, making her the perfect facilitator for international events. Her great sense of organisation helps her and her team deliver great results respecting the most tight deadlines

l'ambition chez Touria n'a aucune limite. ouverte à la discussion et encourage les nouvelles idées. C'est toujours un réel plaisir de collaborer avec elle

I managed Touria in 2010. She's hardworking, capable of responding positively to constructive criticism, and was always willing to go above and beyond her duties to improve the state of the summer program. She is a creative thinker who was always willing to put her mind to solving both the day-to-day and the larger challenges of operating an intensive educational environment.
