Akriti is a very diligent and a sincere individual. She was my mentor on the team for 3 weeks and her approach towards educating me on the job was very professional. She has a great knack of explaining things in a simplified way and this helped me grasp the nuances of the project really quickly. In addition, she also has great communication skills and handles work pressure really well. She was the go to person for our client when it came to issue resolution. Our client appreciated Akriti for being a patient listener and also for her simplified articulation of complex issues. Akriti was instrumental in getting me onboarded onto the team and was an amazing mentor. Even after 5 years, I still use some of the skills which I learned from her and that speaks volumes of how well she mentored me. Thank you so much.
