Rudaba Tabassum

I am a UBC student looking for endeavors and opportunities to expand my horizon of experience and knowledge in the sales and marketing fields. I am a creative soul and love to bring new ideas to the table while working. I have worked in the beauty and retail industry for 4+ years back home and plan to use my experience here in Vancouver as well. My expertise includes but is not limited to excellent communication skills, good social media knowledge, reasonable creative expertise such as- canva, video making, and photography and also good fluency in English speaking and writing. I have always believed that good teamwork is crucial to success and have incorporated that into my work ethic regularly. I hope to be a great addition to your team!
