Bio
Charlotte Young
Zdena is enthusiastic and hard working. I trained her through a Shadow Mentoring Program that I led whilst she was working for Khulumani Support Group. Zdena is a pleasure to work with, responds well to feedback and adapts well to new ways of doing things. I would not hesitate in recommending her as an asset to a team.
