About Liza Tumen

As a certified Project Manager with 8 years of expertise in international development, I bring a wealth of experience in leading and overseeing complex, multi-year projects across various disciplines. I excel at managing cross-functional teams and fostering collaboration to achieve strategic objectives. As a Fulbright alumna and having lived and worked abroad for nearly 4 years, I leverage my cross-cultural communication skills to thrive in diverse office environments and effectively connect with local partners. I studied Arabic for nearly 10 years with a focus on Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) and Levantine Dialect. I hope to apply my technical skills and on-the-ground experience to a career that makes an impact for those in need.
