I have known Archita during our tenure in TISS Mumbai. She is a very passionate and hardworking social development professional with a keen eye for perfection. Archita is one of the very few people who has successfully worked on a large-scale Action Research Project in TISS which took great shape over time with her constant efforts and engagement. She will make a great asset for any company with her expertise and passion.
