Bio
Vinod Kumar Muthyala
I had the pleasure of working closely with Uday at Testbook. As a Lead graphic designer, he demonstrated exceptional creativity, producing visually stunning designs that left a lasting impact on Testbook design projects. Uday's attention to detail and ability to understand organizations' needs truly set him apart. He consistently delivered top-notch work, meeting tight deadlines without compromising on quality. One standout project was the social media campaign for Father's Day, where Uday skillfully translated the creative concept into a visually captivating design. The end result not only exceeded our expectations but also received a retweet from Shashi Tharoor (Ex MP). I highly recommend Uday Soni to anyone seeking a talented and reliable senior graphic designer. Uday is a true professional who consistently delivers exceptional work. It was a pleasure working with Uday, and I look forward to the opportunity to collaborate again in the future.
