Bio
Nikhil Anil (Nick)
One of the most calm and collective individuals I know at Politecnico Di Milano. Bjarki or Ben, as I know him, is a meticulous and articulate person with a sense of great understanding of what is expected to be done. I was lucky enough to work with him on a project for the Social Innovation course and was quite impressed with how talented and knowledgeable he was not just about the project at hand but in general. It was a pleasure working with him and I would hands down recommend him to any headhunters or recruiters to whom I can assure that ben would be a valuable addition and asset to their respective firm.
