Summary

Hello, I'm Sharene Akram, a junior enrolled in the College of Business and Economics as a marketing major at California State University Northridge.

I'm deeply passionate about the beauty and arts sectors and recognize the critical importance of diversity and inclusion in these industries. I possess a background in leadership, sales, management, and data. My objective is to become a versatile Marketing Specialist, eager to leverage my diverse skill set across various marketing domains. I am an adaptable team member well-versed in both.
