Nathasha Ekanayake
We meet a lot of people with different capacities and personalities in the corporate world, but only a very few leaves a mark, and Reshan is definetely one of them. I have worked closely with Reshan Perera for three years at Hemas/Acorn Travels in many projects during my tenure there as an Assistant Manager- Marketing, and I'm glad to mention he's one of the most resourcefull and supportive colleagues I've met there. He is a well equipped and multi-talented team player with finest attention to detail and strategic planning skills. Reshan's passion for work, dedication and his operational and analytical skills are highly commendable and he would be an asset to any organisation or an institute without a doubt. I am more than happy to recommend Reshan and wish him all the success in his future endeavours.

Reshan is one of the most humble colleagues I have ever worked with. He is someone who will give his 200% to the company, as well for his colleagues. He is very pragmatic with his decisions and strategy. This approached led to completion of many projects when we were working together. He has a down to earth attitude and was evenly liked by everyone, since he is someone easy to work with.
