Bio
Ashraf O.
I have know Waheeb for number of years, and I have seen him redefining himself more than once. One is considered lucky if he/she faces the need to redefine oneself, Why? because it forces you to look into yourself and evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of what you have been practicing for years, and it leads you to discover capabilities you were not aware of. Waheeb has done this when he switched career from pure Audiology to IT solutions (he proved himself and achieved his financial and customer satisfaction targets (with flying colors). He returned to his Audiology field and conquered the world again! Waheeb possesses both the art and science of sales, he is organized, focused and analytical. He is also friendly, helpful, and radiates a feeling of trust to his customers. I wish him the best of luck in his future career
