“Amaani is an all-around go-getter who is not afraid to challenge the status quo. During our time together on the Leadership Rotation Program, I am repeatedly amazed by her ability to efficiently and rationally assess the various situations at hand, and quickly turn them into actionable and impactful plans. She is also a great mentor, always taking the time to share and offer constructive advice to others where she can. Really a strong resource to any organization. I highly recommend her.”
