Excellent! I met Danielle in the Fall of 2010 when I arrived at GUST to teach communications and marketing and she was a student in a writing course. She was my student on several other occasions -- I think she always earned an A (that's rare in my classes). During her senior year Danielle served as the project manager of the Kuwait Leadership Mastery, which I directed on behalf of the U.S. State Department. This program enjoyed tremendous success and Danielle was responsible for much of it -- she managed staff and registrants, handled admin details, organized 5 events and overall kept us on track. If I owned a business in Kuwait and needed bright, young staff with lots of potential it would not be too difficult to find candidates -- but if I wanted to hire all of that plus a candidate with skills and personality, I would hire Danielle!
