I first met Deepika in one of the AML seminars. I found her to be a quick learner, enthusiastic and goal oriented. She demonstrated early in her career that she understood her business very well. It was a great pleasure to be with her in many training sessions and I noticed she is keenly devoted to her work, but being a real people person, she is also enjoyable to be around. Deepika for me is an accomplished, result oriented professional with extensive experience in creating and managing corporate-wide compliance and risk management program. I readily recommend Deepika to those seeking a fruitful asset. With her abilities, adaptability, and dedication, she would be an excellent fit for any organization.

I had the pleasure of working with Deepika for past 4 years. She expertly filled the role of Compliance & built the compliance department from the ground up. Her ability to juggle multiple projects was absurdly efficient. She will be asset to any team & successful contributor in any company she works in.
