Bio
Mahes Varier
Intelligent and proactive is what comes to my mind when I think about Chinmayee. I have had the pleasure of knowing Chinmayee for over five years during which she was working with me on various projects during our undergraduate. Chinmayee readily accepted opportunities and she not only stands by her decisions but also ensures that the tasks and responsibilities entrusted upon her are taken to logical conclusion. It is on the strength of such qualities that I strongly believe that she will succeed in all endeavors in life.

I had the pleasure of working with Chinmayee on the final year project during our BE. A great asset in our team, Chinmayee has a lot of potential and works hard on perfecting her work. She is very resourceful and working with her taught me how to manage multiple projects efficiently. I am sure that she will excel in any project she takes on and is a great addition to any team.
