Ron Bose
Harsh, thank you for all you are doing for your fellow students. You have done a phenomenal job in reaching out to them via YouTube and LinkedIn and I follow your posts with great interest. I really resonate with the idea that nurturing real human connections is very important to a job search. I have fond memories of having you in my class in Fall 2017. What struck me was how genuinely interested you were in the course and the number of times you stopped by my office to tell me about the books you were reading or the people network you were building. It was never about homework or exams or grades. That didn’t stop you from getting very high grades either!
Logan Simpson
I had the pleasure of mentoring Harsh on a weekly basis for over a year. During that time he both learned the dynamics of American office culture as well as grew his potential as a future leader. Harsh is a creative problem solver who constantly sees opportunities to improve the world around him. Once we were at a restaurant with a confusing menu and he later led a team to hackathon victory by creating an app that scans menus and brings them to life. I recommend Harsh for any roles requiring initiative, problem solving, and collaboration. He has a great blend of both technical and soft skills that make him a valuable asset to any team.
