(November 2012 to November 2013). This experience, in addition to my previous experience of 1 year as a Lecturer of psychology in University of Wah Cantt(November 2007 to November 2008), has given me knowledge and perspective in humanitarian situations, and an understanding of the importance of developing sustainable community development programs. I possess excellent organizational skills and an ability to maintain the big picture while attending to details and logistics. I am an excellent communicator, with an ability to manage large teams of people and I remain calm and positive under pressure, especially in what can be difficult or traumatic situations. I have a strong academic grounding in Psychology, having completed M-Phil in Psychology from Quaid-e-Azam University, Islamabad in 2007. Regards Kaneez Fatima Contact 0313-8789378 Multan
