I worked with Lakshya while building FanClash, an esports fantasy platform that I co-founded. He has been remarkable at managing a young team and helping them up-skill. He is a very collaborative person and knows how to work with product and tech teams. As a UI designer, he brings a lot of depth and creativity to any team.

I had a chance to see how Lakshya led the design team to change the entire design language of the platform smoothly and effectively. He has a keen eye for good user experience and how to evoke feelings with the design. He worked with product and tech teams to never let any release go through which is sub-par. His ability to take his stance, and hold everyone to a high standard is commendable.
