I have known Ahmed (AKA Tekha) since he was a teenager. In the past decade, I have witnessed him transform himself into the confident, mature, and sociable man he is today. Ahmed is honest, reliable, trustworthy, and gets things done. By taking my advice and pursuing a master's degree in the U.S., he also has developed very high levels of intercultural competence, making him an asset to anyone working in English-speaking and/or Arab-speaking environments.
