Suzan Naseredine

As a former educator, head of wellbeing and consultant, I’m striving to place wellbeing at the heart of any
organization. A personable and energetic individual looking for a position where the extensive experience of teaching along with exceptional mentoring skills can be fully utilized. Seeking a position where I can use my degrees, and experience with individuals of different cultural backgrounds to contribute to the development of the company.
That will allow me to utilize the skills gained during my academic studies and build a long-term career in where skills and knowledge regarding prevention, intervention, education, policy design and psychological research could come in handy.
