I am delighted to recommend Kavitha Saravanan as a Lab Technician who has worked under my supervision for a year at ELab solution. Kavitha produces reliable and precise data that significantly supports scientific tests. Kavitha is a team member, she is supportive and goes the extra mile to help other technicians. Kavitha communicates well, follow directions and completes tasks on time with minimal supervision and great accuracy. I highly recommend Kavitha as I truly believe that any lab that hires her, will thrive immensely due to her technical expertise and clear thought process.
