Bio
Hannah Wilson
I was fortunate to partner with Ruchir starting in early 2022 on a new program focused on developing case studies and go-to-market proof points for some of Meta’s flagship Ads Business Products. Ruchir led the test and project design, outlined parameters for our studies and supported the team throughout the execution of these projects. Ruchir was an excellent cross-functional partner and played a fundamental role getting us to the finish line on multiple product tests and studies. He was an essential part of the success of this program and acted as a collaborative partner throughout. Not only is he incredibly detailed and knowledgeable in data science methodologies, his thoughtful approach to solving complex problems and his continuous effort to learn more ways to partner effectively with his cross-functional teams would make him an asset to any organization or team!

I worked alongside Ruchir at the NBA for several years as members of the Customer Data Strategy group. He effectively communicates complex data science and statistics principles to colleagues at all levels of technical expertise and can leverage his skillset to align seamlessly with needs of business partners across an organization. Ruchir shows an incredible passion for his work and his/his colleagues’ professional growth. While developing a segmentation methodology for use in NBA league marketing campaigns, he took great care to understand the goals and requirements of the marketing side and explain his approach along the way, resulting in a better product and a more well-rounded & knowledgeable team. Any team would be lucky to have Ruchir.
